Faouzia – Film Noir

Today, Moroccan-born classically trained multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and vocalist, Faouzia, officially announces her highly-anticipated debut album, FILM NOIR, releasing November 7.

Says Faouzia on FILM NOIR, “I have waited over 7 years for this moment – every obstacle, every defeat, every triumph all poured into one project. When I first started writing this album I approached it with one question: If this were the only project I left behind, what would it sound like? What would I eternally be proud of? I wrote this album as though my survival depended on it, because in many ways it did. When you’re on the brink of losing yourself, everything — your purpose, your identity — is at stake. FILM NOIR transcends lyrics and melody. It is a culmination of every thought and every story I so urgently needed to tell – my one and only testimony.”

Faouzia conjures a visual and cinematic world through her intricate and purposeful lyricism as well as her dramatic and melancholic melodies – with her unmistakable vocals taking center stage. The album features newly released singles “PEACE & VIOLENCE” and the critically-acclaimed “UNETHICAL,” which has garnered over 10M global streams and video plays combined and landed Faouzia on the cover of Spotify’s Pop All Day playlist, as well as Faouzia’s first independent single, “PORCELAIN.”

Faouzia first let fans in on the major news this past Monday during her sold-out event at Paris’ iconic Théâtre Les Étoiles. The intimate evening found Faouzia perform fan-favorites such as “Fur Elise,” “Tears Of Gold,” and “Minefields” as well as FILM NOIR standouts “PORCELAIN,” “UNETHICAL,” and “PEACE & VIOLENCE.”

Stay tuned for more music and announcements to come from Faouzia!
