I lived in Montreal for a few years. On my first day there, I turned to the local MTV-equivalent to check out Montreal’s popular music. As I was brushing my teeth, I heard a singer who commanded my attention. At first I thought it was Sade, singing in french. I was able to catch the end of the video but couldn’t see the name of the artist. Well, thank God for Google.
Samina is her name and her sultry, smooth, breathy alto is one you will fall in love with immediately. (I did.) She’s been flying so far under the radar, even Montrealers don’t know who she is, though she was born and raised in Quebec and lives in Montreal. Whether she’s singing in french or english, her voice will make that evening glass of wine taste even better.
Take a listen, then check out one of her videos on YouTube.
