Iranian-Swedish Singer Snoh Aalegra made her NPR Tiny Desk debut on Tuesday (Feb.18), and it was truly mesmerizing. The video segment is 16 minutes long where Aalegra gives a soulful performance with songs from her 2019 album Ugh, Those Feels Again.
Aalegra is sporting Off-White Nike Dunks, baggy jeans, glowing skin, and a sleek ponytail. But her real beauty shines through the moment she begins singing and we hear her angelic voice. The tracks are stripped of their heavy beats, kick drums, and trap echoes, leaving Allegra’s smooth R&B vocals to take center stage.
She starts off with “Love Like That,” a track filled with looming heart break, and then introduces one of her bigger hits “I Want You Around.” Next she details the highs and lows of being in love by performing “Whoa,” and then transitions into “Fool For You” off her 2017 album Feels. She ends the segment with hit “Find Someone Like You.”
Last week, Aalegra dropped a remix of “Whoa,” with Pharrell Williams. Her North American tour is set to begin next month, on March 18 in Vancouver.
