Bahghi sings with her angelic voice and gently guides you into her world. With her wide imagination she takes you on a ride; whether somewhere outside, inside of her room, or within herself. Bahghi songs are written to lift herself up, give voice to the ocean of emotions and give birth to the world she longs to see.
