Siti Amina is a female Zanzibari Singer-Songwriter, Oud Player and Women’s advocate. She mixes Taarab notes with modern genres resulting in her own unique fusion. In her music, she doesn’t forget the rich roots where she comes from and remains open to express herself in new ways and evolve as a musician, a woman and human. Siti is the lead singer of SITI AND THE BAND.

At a young age she discovered her passion for music with her cousin and that she could express her feelings through her voice. Since then, she had the vision of becoming a known artist in Africa and the world inspiring positive changes in her society. Now Siti Amina is an active singer that uses her art and voice to spread consciousness and messages of hope to the world. Creating from her personal story, where she had to renounce a non-supporting marriage to pursue her artistic dreams, she aims to inspire women who face similar challenges to know themselves and go after their dreams.

She is a well-established voice coach in the Dhow Countries Music Academy (DCMA) in Stone Town and has so far supported many rising stars that she has become a role model musician among young artists in Zanzibar.
