“We hope together with you, we can push the limits and live the many possibilities that this life can gift you with. We will wander until we get there. We will wander with you until you feel the magic that this life has to offer.” – Hanifa & Juliet

Najuah shared with me what it means to them to be indie music women artists:
“Supporting women in the music business is really important to us. In an industry where there are few women who hold executive positions, where men dominate every area of the music industry. It’s important for women to support each other and not work against each other.”
You can hear Najuah’s single, Red Light, on the Indie Music Women Spotify Playlist.
