DUBAI: Palestinian-Chilean singer Elyanna has postponed her first North American tour because she wants to honor the people of Palestine. My heart hurts with everything going on in my homeland,” she wrote on Instagram on Friday. “I have decided to postpone my tour until further notice. Gaza I’m praying for you. I wish peace among my people.”The 22-day tour would have taken place from Nov. 6 to 28. The music sensation was set to perform in Dallas, Houston, Toronto, Montreal, Washington, New York, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco and Santa Ana. Earlier this year, Elyanna became the first artist to perform a full set in Arabic at California’s Coachella music festival. The musician is known for her songs “Ghareed Alay,” “Ala Bali,” “Ana Lahale” and the recently released “Mama Eh,” among others. The Los Angeles-based singer’s music is a mix of Arabic and Western beats, which she attributes to her multi-cultural upbringing. Elyanna has been normalizing Arabic lyrics in the Western world throughout her career, taking inspiration from artists including Lana Del Ray and Beyonce, as well as Middle Eastern legends like Fayrouz.
