- Bio:
- Award-winning singer-songwriter Amanda Abizaid has beautiful memories of growing up in Beirut, Lebanon in the 70’s. She remembers Mediterranean summers and breathtaking landscapes. She recalls shyly singing harmonies in her older sisters’ music group. But Abizaid can’t forget the Lebanese Civil War. The bomb drills. The snipers lurking in the shadows. The soldiers coming to the house. And the checkpoints every two miles. The PTSD still haunts her. Abizaid, her mom, and siblings all relocated to Poughkeepsie, New York. Today, Abizaid is committed to healing children living in war and promoting unity through her socially conscious, global music. Abizaid shines a light on Lebanon by infusing her songs with mystical Eastern melodies, Arabic lyrics, and bringing together Eastern and Western music and cultural sensibilities. “I am a product of East and West harmony, and that’s the spirit I seek to promote in my music. I want to bring people together. Even though I sing about serious topics, I want my music to joyful.”. Abizaid is an award-winning singer-songwriter, flautist, pianist with a darkly sensual vocal style. Recently, she won “Best World Music Female Artist 2025” from the Radio Music Awards and was inducted into the Indie Music Hall of Fame. Abizaid is a four-time Josie Award nominee, and a U.S.A. Songwriting Competition finalist. She has been featured on Apple Music’s “Holidays Around The World” front page, charted in the iTunes Top 10, and has received radio play from countries around the world. She has collaborated with legend Stephen Stills who she considers a mentor. Abizaid sang the Emmy-winning song for Paramount’s science fiction series The 4400, “A Place In Time,” which earned praise in New York Times and Forbes. To date, Abizaid has released seven albums, three EPs, numerous singles, and a remix EP. Abizaid has performed nationally and internationally. She has performed “The Star-Spangled Banner” at UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion, and Jackie Robinson Stadium. She’s collaborated with David Ruffin Jr. and Lou Rawls Jr. and has shared the stage with Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Todd Sucherman (Styx) and Vivian Campbell (Def Leppard), among many others. As a flautist, Abizaid has performed with The American Victory Orchestra, and sang as a soprano with the Metropolitan Master Chorale. In addition, she is Cultural Ambassador to HelpPhilippineSchools.org. Abizaid was born to an American mother and Mexican, Lebanese father in Beirut. Abizaid was always passionate about singing—honing her skills privately—but fear held her back. “It took me a long time to call myself a singer,”. “What has is looking at singing as being of service—it’s not about me.” Abizaid experienced a profound blossoming when she moved to Los Angeles and fell into the music scene which culminated in her “A Place In Time” performance. “Once that happened, I decided to use any recognition I had to promote peace.”. In 2015, she reconnected with a former Marine stationed in Lebanon who was working to bring positive change in the Philippines. “As an adult, I was reminded of how living in war affects children, and how songs, songwriting, and giving children a voice can help them work through PTSD,” Her latest releases are the critically acclaimed, “Hold On My Heart Bilingual Remix,” and the award-winning EP Dangerous & Young with English and Arabic versions of the empowering song. The “Dangerous and Young Arabic Remix” video has won several international music video awards. Abizaid is currently writing a new album themed around fighting through fears, sharing transformative stories and healing vibes. “My music is about world peace and getting cultures to understand each other.”
