Lafawndah’s The Dawn Of Everything is a song that she says was born between unlearning the past and watching the future unfold and is dedicated to the people of Iran and their bravery in rising up after the murder of Masha Amini. Paul talks with the pan-global, pan-genre artist, herself with Iranian roots, about why it’s important for music to offer solidarity and protest, as she puts it “We have music for when we’re born, we have music for when we die and we have music for when we say no!”

The Dawn Of Everything is available only via Bandcamp for now and all proceeds from sales will be donated to the organisation Human Rights In Iran - persian.iranhumanrights.org
