Tarzana, CA – The San Fernando Valley was host to Philadelphia-based rock band Soraia on March 7th when the group played a raucous set at Tarzana’s Maui Sugar Mill Saloon. Performing between two Los Angeles acts, the punk band Tornado Club and rock and roll band the Brutalists, Soraia showcased songs from throughout their career, including a few of their new songs of their upcoming album Dig Your Roots.
Opening their set with “Love Like Voodoo” from the 2013 album In the Valley of Love and Guns, the group lived up to their reputation of energetic and engaging live shows. The crowd was moving and dancing throughout their performance. After a few other fan favorites from previous albums, Soraia featured “Superman is Gone”, “Wild Woman” and “Dangerous,” all from the upcoming album Dig Your Roots.
The group ended with “Wandering Start” from fan favorite album Dead Reckoning.
Soraia, whose name means “bright guiding star” in Arabic, is comprised of ZouZou Mansour (lead vocals, tambourine), Nick Seditious (guitars), Travis Smith (bass, backing vocals), and Brianna Sig (drums, percussion, backing vocals). The band is signed to Steven Van Zandt’s label Wicked Cool Records.
