Known for her diary-like confessional songwriting style and mesmerizing vocals, Lora Mouna uses music as a vessel to capture moments of vulnerability within herself and her relationships. Her music reflects on her shadow work and healing, flowing between indie-rock, folk, and middle eastern music - intertwining the different sonic experiences from her culture and inspirations.
Originally from Winston-Salem, NC, Lora’s musical journey started with hearing her Syrian mother sing and play piano at a very young age, which has become an endless well of inspiration to write music herself. In 2025, she made her music festival debut and released her debut EP, phases of becoming, a project born out of conversations with herself and her mental health. Most recently, she completed a tour supporting Jhariah, bringing her evolving sound to new listeners while stepping into the fullest realization of her artistic identity through a body of work that embraces every part of who she is.
