From the organizer:
One of the most interesting artists of our time, Palestinian SAMA ‘Abdulhadi is taking the stage again at Jeton Event in Istanbul after the magnificent night last year, when she made her first head-liner arena show of her career.
More than 100,000 signatures were collected on change.org in a very short time for SAMA, which was supported by the entire global Techno scene after he was detained in his homeland of Palestine just for playing music. After regaining her freedom, her return was spectacular.
Although SAMA is not involved in politics, she has become an automatic leader as she is the only representative of the difficult lands she was born in on the Global Stage.
After immigrating to London from Palestine in 2011, her career changed and her performances in the “Boiler-Room” events brought her together with the masses.
With the opening of festivals and clubs, SAMA’, whose international calendar is much more intense than before, has now started to take place in the most important line-ups of the world such as Coachella and Awakenings.
Ferhat Albayrak, the founder of Jeton Records, who successfully represents our country’s Techno scene abroad with her sets and productions, and Pina Tesla, one of the rising stars of Jeton, will host SAMA ‘Abdulhadi.
