Sweet Awakening

'Sweet Awakening' is Sweet Hayah's Debut Album. Sweet Hayah is composed of Nehal Abuelata (lead vocals/keyboard), Devin Moreno (guitar/backup vocals), Josh Gardner (drums/backup vocals), and Aaron Marquez (bass/backup vocals). Poetic and fierce, enlightened and elegantly brash, San Jose's Sweet Hayah is an impassioned blend of Rock and Soul music. Bringing funky unexpected World nuances, hard-hitting rhythm and blues beats, and passionate, spirited performances, Sweet Hayah is poised to take center stage as one of the Bay Area's premium independent bands in 2013, and beyond. The band's powerful, memorable grooves and soulful, heartfelt melodies are matched only by their insatiable drive to success: in less than two years, the band has already recorded a full length debut album ('Sweet Awakening'), a four-track EP, received a great deal of positive media attention from independent radio and TV, and created a solid following with their energetic, pulse-pounding live shows. 'Hayah' is the Arabic word for life, and when it comes to this band, life has never been so sweet. A force to be reckoned with, Sweet Hayah is an act not to be missed, and their first album 'Sweet Awakening' is a must-hear!
