Maryam Turkey is an Iraqi-American, award winning visual artist, singer and songwriter. In 2009, she moved with her family as refugees to the United States. Turkey grew up listening to traditional and pop Middle Eastern music. At age 15 she had to learn English upon moving to the US. Her choice of Lyrics comes out the way she expresses- in both languages- keeping it raw to her mixed cultural influences. Turkey writes her music using Omnichord which then she builds melodies over. Her first single titled “this place” is about a place where one can be their child spirit. Similarly to the way she writes, being playful and pure to whatever comes in mind.
