Urhay Warda is an Assyrian-Australian singer and performer known for pairing modern Assyrian pop with melodies and themes that honor Nineveh and the broader Assyrian heritage. Emerging in the early 2010s, she began building a following through cover performances and live medleys of classic Assyrian songs before releasing original work such as the single “Nineveh & Ashur,” which helped establish her as a rising Assyrian voice on digital music platforms. Her 2019 album “Khayootie” further showcased a style that moves between danceable pop, emotional ballads, and nostalgic tributes, often reflecting on memory, love, and the resilience of a scattered nation. Based in Australia but performing for audiences across the diaspora, Urhay uses both live shows and online releases to keep Assyrian music visible and evolving for younger listeners. Through her recordings, collaborations with Assyrian producers, and regular appearances at cultural events, she contributes to the preservation of language and identity while also pushing Assyrian music into contemporary global sounds. In doing so, she offers Assyrians at home and abroad songs they can celebrate with, grieve to, and recognize themselves in.
