Lena Younes

“Lena Younes [...] is offering a safe space inside her music, a gently lit room where you can feel your feelings and remember the ones you’ve lost — without fear, without shame, with only love.”
– Odyssey Magazine

Lena Younes is a singer-songwriter, yoga teacher and breathwork facilitator based in the Eastern Algarve, Portugal. Her music bridges folk-inspired storytelling with spacious, ethereal soundscapes, carrying the imprint of her personal journey through illness, healing, motherhood, and transformation. Each song unfolds as both an intimate reflection and an invitation for listeners to reconnect with their own inner landscapes.

Her debut album, Ways of the Dreamer (2025), gathers nine songs written over six years, weaving together themes of grief, surrender, rebirth, and the quiet strength found in stillness. Shaped during a period of profound change, the record is both deeply personal and universally resonant, offering a soundscape where vulnerability meets hope. It follows earlier releases including Pray (2025), I Am the Land (2022), and Wild Unknown (2021), which first introduced her blend of delicate vocals, contemplative lyrics, and spacious instrumentation.

Drawing from her work with yoga and conscious breath, Lena approaches music as a form of healing. Her live performances and recordings create a meditative space where breath and sound meet, inviting listeners into moments of presence, release, and transformation.
