Neena Roe

Neena Roe creates heartfelt acoustic pop that melts shoulder knots. The artist’s upcoming EP, 'how to be alone,' fuses effortless indie pop with a shimmery R&B spine. Roe pulls from her own life, distilling the universally relatable heartache of the transient twenties, the ache of distance from loved ones, and the introspective journey of the self into lush, evocative melodies woven with rugged instrumentation. Raised in an Iranian immigrant family, a 4-year-old Neena performed a fusion of Persian oldies and Y2K pop in her Detroit living room for an audience of family and often for the elderly in the nursing home where her mother worked. Her upcoming single "heaven & hell" conjures the magic of fireflies around a solitary campfire, transitioning into the nostalgic shimmer of the recently released "concrete floors." 'how to be alone' captures Roe’s soul-barring, natural vocal talent, hovering like smoke over gentle poppy pulses for an experience both enchanting and comforting. A trilingual artist with a flair for performance, Neena has graced numerous stages with her original songs and imaginative covers. Her recent accolades include gracing the cover of The Persian Magazine in March 2024, premieres on Apple Music’s Beats1 Radio, and securing spots on The Chart Show with two songs. Additionally, she has garnered viral moments on TikTok, amassing a community of over 36,000 followers.
