Saint Levant (born Marwan Abdelhamid), is a Palestinian / French / Algerian / Serbian artist. Born in Jerusalem, and raised in Gaza, Saint Levant fuses English, French and Arabic to bring a truly unique take on modern global music. Effortless and seductive trilingual wordplay has established him as a breakout global star. Inspired by influential Arab thinkers from generations past and contemporary artists alike, Saint Levant’s music is nostalgic towards the early 2000’s, yet intensely forward thinking, surpassing the limits of genre. With his complex worldview, Saint Levant recently launched the 2048 Fellowship, providing yearly living expenses for young Palestinian creatives, as well as his 2048 label imprint, allowing him to remain an independent artist.
