SAMI THE GREAT - MY HEART MELTS
PRESENTED BY STEPHANIE ROBALINO
Sami Akbari, known musically as sami.the.great, had a unique musical upbringing. As a child, her family exposed her to popular artists like Otis Redding, Bob Marley, John Denver, and... Googoosh.
For anyone who hasn't heard of Googoosh, her level of pop-stardom is comparable to the likes of Madonna. However, Googoosh is a celebrity who iconic status and undeniable fame is not common knowledge in America. Her career reached such great and admirable heights in the Middle East, specifically, Iran.
Sami's father was born and raised in Iran, and Sami spent many months there growing up. After a short stint living in the capital city, Tehran, during fifth grade, Sami returned to the United States. As an adolescent she was somewhere between American and Iranian cultures, causing her to feel out of place among her peers. It was around this time when she started listening to The Beatles. Sami connected to the music, and in it she felt like she finally found somewhere she belonged.
Sami had been singing and writing poetry for most of her life, but it wasn't until college that she finally had the courage to sit down and combine the two into writing songs. Once she did, there was no turning back. Sami was driven by her overwhelming desire to play music, and she began performing around Roanoke, VA, where she attended school. Immediately after graduating, Sami moved to NYC to pursue her dream of being an artist. She planned to make music that others who felt like they didn't belong could relate to, and she succeeded above and beyond expectations.
Today, Sami's music is a sonic portrayal of emotion and wit, of melancholy and humor. Her songs reflect the notion that great things come in small packages. The music showcases a small-framed singer whose impassioned voice fills the spaces and lives around her.
