Gonna march outside that door today Gotta run before my papa see Left a note sitting side the tiled dresser With a pen and note for him to keep He said “But why are you going?” Gonna have to find and seek me “What if troubles coming?” Imma fight before I weep “Don't you leave us worried” Im a bird with a steel wing soaring A refugee blood born in me Oooo, do do doooo Do do dooo, Do do doo Crooked man stole all our gold for fame He didn’t know real gems lie underneath Anointed hands my father gifted to this land Can’t no bad man take away from me He said “But why are you going?” Gonna have to find and seek me “What if troubles coming?” Imma fight before I weep “Don't you leave us worried” I’m a bird with a steel wing soaring A refugee blood born in me My refugee blood You can’t take my freedom My refugee blood Can’t take my freedom My refugee blood Can’t take my freedom My refugee blood can’t take my freedom My refugee blood Can’t take our freedom No bad man can take my freedom

about

The firstborn daughter of Ethiopian refugees, music and songwriting were inherently part of Arima's upbringing as she discovered the power of mezmur, Ethiopian spiritual music, in the back of an Ethiopian Orthodox Church in Las Vegas where she was raised. That belief in the healing power of songs and stories flows through her own music, which she took with her as she found a home amongst like-minded peers and friends in Leimert Park, Los Angeles. In 2016, she released her celestial 2016 EP Temporary Fixes, which The FADER called "a tranquil offering laced with pleasant vocals and jazzy melodies inspired by love, attraction, and loss." In LA, she found herself a home and community amongst like-minded peers, and toured with Noname around her critically-acclaimed debut album Telefone.

In the time since, Arima's been honing her craft as an artist, working alongside the likes of Jon Bap and Teo Halm, and living through the spectrum of experiences that inform her forthcoming full-length project, An Orange Colored Day, out October 7th.

about

Arima Ederra Los Angeles, California

Waking up feels good. You should stretch when you wake—your voice, your hands, your knees. If it's early, it's just you and the trees and the songs will come visit you. The melody might come dressed like lightning bugs. It might swing down from the crest of a hill and brush over you like wind. When it does come, be ready to grab it fast. ... more
