ALBUM

Immerse yourself in Fya’s latest offering, a visual-album titled 'Homeland'. This is not just music; it's a journey through nature, environment, and human interaction, captured during intimate family visits to Barbados. 'Homeland' is an exploration of identity and culture, and radical self-love. It dives into themes of otherness and acceptance, revealing a connection to the land and one's ancestors that throttles deep into the spiritual realm.

LIVE

Homeland is a powerful live performance that fuses music, visuals, and movement to explore family, love, culture, and belonging. A live adaptation of I Am Fya’s concept and visual album, the show blends deep bass, hypnotic vocals, and immersive soundscapes with self-directed, cinematic visuals—filmed entirely on her phone during time spent in Barbados.

Layering field recordings of nature, conversations, and everyday life with pulsating beats and rich harmonies, I Am Fya creates a soundworld that is both intimate and expansive. The stage is transformed into a ritual space, with an altar at its heart—a symbolic meeting point of past and present, adorned with personal artifacts, flickering lights, and burning herbs.

With a bold mix of dancehall, techno, acid, and trap, each performance is an avant-garde, genre-defying experience. More than a show, Homeland is a sonic and visual journey—raw, immersive, and deeply personal.

MOVIE

Homeland is a deeply personal visual album that captures themes of family, belonging, and resilience. Filmed alongside the field recordings that form its sonic foundation, the footage was shot during the pandemic in Barbados, as well as in Brighton and Manchester—places that have shaped the artist’s journey.

Through a mix of intimate self-recorded moments, environmental imagery, and everyday life, Homeland documents the uncertainty of the times. I Am Fya speaks candidly to the camera from beaches, streets, and the family home, reflecting on the challenges of caring for her parents, navigating travel restrictions, and the emotional toll of being repeatedly stranded. The film weaves together raw moments—her grandmother offering words of wisdom, her mother singing a favorite country song, and joyful exchanges with a spirited child—alongside the layered sounds of birdsong, crickets, and the hum of everyday life.

The story culminates in Fya performing a final dance in the family garden before the journey back to the UK, a poignant farewell as the artist travels home with her parents, navigating the challenges of the journey together. Featuring her mother, father, grandmother, and a close-knit community, Homeland is a meditation on ancestry, belonging, and the ever-shifting meaning of home—both in the world and within oneself.
