Zhaklina, originally from New York and of Albanian, Irish and Greek descent, is an Independent, Alternative Pop artist. Soulful power with an edgy approach, her music insists on authentic connection and meaningful experiences. She is notorious for her captivating vocals, her honest, relatable lyricism, and inspiring messages of mental well being. Her faith is her driving force and she continues to encourage others to live from a place of knowing they are deeply loved. She has contributed to various mental health organizations including (but not limited to) “To Write Love On Her Arms”, “NoStigmas” and “Project Semicolon” with portions of her music revenue. Her convictions for suicide prevention lead her to continued involvement in events and volunteer efforts that are fighting to make a difference and help those who need it. Her motivation stems from the love she has for family and friends that battle mental illness, people she has lost to mental illness, and her own battle with self worth. She believes in the beauty of sharing our stories and the strength it has to reach people who need to be reminded they are not alone. A rose, a symbol of classic beauty and strength, is her visual expression of her message. Music is how she shares it.
