Facesoul (Faisal Salah) is an artist born in Somalia and raised in London who dedicated his life to making music a cure.
Since his debut on stage at the age of nineteen, his moving mix of singing, poetry and storytelling has taken him to every corner of the world, and next November he will embark on a new European tour.
What Facesoul creates is not just a show, it’s a gathering. Raised at the crossroads of different cultures, with the songs of the diaspora in one ear and the sounds of London in the other, Facesoul creates from a place of rebirth and return, mourning and celebration. It traces the threads that connect us all, no matter where we come from or what language we speak.
His first EP, YSRA, revealed this voice in 2021, followed by A Beautiful Patience in 2023, and last November he released his first album, ARRIVAL, the most successful expression to date of an artist supported throughout his career by the PRS Foundation and carried by word-of-mouth.
Today, Facesoul brings this same intention to Paris, Copenhagen, Vienna, Darmstadt, Stuttgart, Cologne, Munich, Dresden and beyond, creating convivial spaces for this time when we need it most.
Each evening mixes real musical talent, moving stories, humor and celebration; it is the kind of room where strangers end up feeling like family from the end of the last song.
There’s laughter, there’s that particular silence of a room that really listens, and there’s music designed to go through you and cheer you up.
Alongside the concerts, Facesoul also organizes workshops on creativity and art, inviting people to reconnect with their own creative instincts rather than just admire their own.
With more than fifty international concerts to his credit this year, his goal is only becoming clearer over time and travel.
Facesoul’s goal for this concert series is simple: to help people recharge their batteries. To offer sunshine, joy and hope as the darkest months approach. And to remind ourselves, through music and a shared space, that solidarity is perhaps the most powerful remedy we have.
This autumn, it comes to your city. Come fill up.
