On 14 September 2026, Santeria Toscana 31 in Milan, Italy welcomes Zeyne, the Palestinian‑Jordanian singer and songwriter crafting a bilingual pop R&B that folds Arabic melodies into soul, jazz and hip‑hop textures. Raised in Amman between dabke rhythms, piano and classical voice, she turned the pause of 2020 into a first step on stage, moving from home covers to the Amman Jazz Festival, a run of singles and a studio partnership with producer Nasir Al Bashir.

Live, she moves easily between Arabic and English, laying supple grooves under Levantine hooks. The set reaches back to Minni Ana, Nostalgia and Atoul, the Saint Levant link‑up Balak, and nods to writing she has signed for Issam Alnajjar, Elyanna or Massari, reworked for the stage. Recent pieces take their place too: Ma Bansak (presented on COLORS), Bali, and the double single 7arrir 3aqlak / Asli Ana, where dabke steps meet R&B swing. Her 2025 debut album Awda anchors the show with Hilwa, Arrib Minni and collaborations with Saint Levant and Bayou, with lyrics circling intimacy, memory and a steady attachment to Palestine.
