JAQLYN MAKES HISTORY AS AWAKENING MUSIC'S FIRST FEMALE ARTIST!
AWAKENING Music has broken new ground with the signing of its inaugural female artist: the incredibly talented Muslim Austrian singer-songwriter, Jaqlyn.
The label is celebrating this landmark move with the immediate release of her debut single, the emotionally charged anthem, "This Is Who I Am”, set to captivate audiences worldwide.
At just 23, Jaqlyn arrives on the global stage not only with a powerful voice but also with a compelling personal story that deeply informs her music.
Born in Graz, Austria, Jaqlyn possesses a vibrant blend of Austrian and Georgian heritage.
She first garnered international attention after her mesmerizing performance on The Voice of Germany in September 2024, where her rendition of George Benson’s “Nothing’s Gonna Change My Love for You”, earned a unanimous four-chair turn from the celebrity judges.
That performance has since cemented her status as an extraordinary new voice, racking up over 4 million views on YouTube.
This career milestone follows a profound personal journey for Jaqlyn, who embraced Islam in January 2023.
This transformation has become central to her art.
"Wearing a hijab doesn't stop me from being bold or creative. Instead, it gives me the strength to be a leader and a positive influence," she states, highlighting how her faith fuels her creativity.
The debut single, "This Is Who I Am," is a stirring anthem of identity, faith, and self-acceptance.
Co-written with Awakening's multi-platinum artist Maher Zain and an acclaimed international creative team, the track is a potent lyrical journey.
Starting with moments of vulnerability and reflection, Jaqlyn guides listeners through her path of resilience, embracing the challenges and triumphs that have shaped her.
The song’s chorus delivers a bold and unforgettable declaration of authenticity: “Here I stand… This is who I am.”
Reflecting on the recording process, Jaqlyn stated, “Recording ‘This Is Who I Am’ felt natural and effortless; it flowed right from my heart. I feel blessed to be able to share my faith and values through music, and I hope this song empowers others to embrace their true selves.”
The track masterfully showcases Jaqlyn’s dynamic vocal capability and emotional depth, blending tenderness and strength to offer a refreshing and inspiring new perspective in contemporary faith-based music.
Awakening Music Co-founder and Director, Bara Kherigi, expressed his excitement, saying, “Jaqlyn’s message and artistry celebrate female creativity, strength, and representation in Islamic music, and we are proud to embark on this journey with her.”
"This Is Who I Am" is now available on all global streaming platforms.
