Palestinian-Chilean singer Elyanna became the first artist to perform a set in entirely in Arabic at Coachella Festival over the weekend.

The iconic American music festival kicked off in Indio, California on 14 April with three days of shows, followed by a second weekend of performances later this month.

Elyanna performed on Saturday 15 April, debuting her new single ‘Janene Orr’ and singing traditional ‘mawals’ and Egyptian songs from her childhood alongside her brother Feras on the keyboard.

The 21-year-old also waved a keffiyeh, a scarf widely viewed as a symbol of Palestinian resistance, to the loud cheer of fans.

Elyanna is known for blending genres and cultures with her music. She grew up in Nazareth and in Chile.
