Nibal Malshi
Nabal graduated from the academy of music and dance in Jerusalem. She was the first to major in middle eastern singing. She also majored in dance, earning two bachelors in six years.
She received the "Al-Qattan" foundation scholarship for performing arts. She was chosen to participate with other artists in a dance workshop where she partnered with KVS from Brussels for a month-long in Ramallah. Additionally, she participated in a Voice for Peace project in Germany and musicians programs in London.
In 2010, "Jerusalem Bride," directed By Sahira Dirbas, was her first acting film experience. The movie was screened in Palestine, Europe, and the US and was nominated for many awards.
That same year she released her first written and composed song, "Kilmatak" "your words," and was elected the singer of the year in her hometown Haifa. Since then, she has worked on her own songs and continues to partner with well-known musicians from the middle east. To date, Nibal has released four songs, and her music is played on all musical platforms.
Since being in the United States, she has performed with master musicians and artists Simone Shaheen. Recently she has performed with the National Arab Orchestra, directed by Maestro Micheal Ibrahim, in Detroit.
Today Nibal is based in Dallas, Texas, where she is a devoted full-time mother of 3 boys, ages 8, 7, and 4, and they are all very musical. Nibal is working on three new songs to be released soon, written by her and by Lebanese, Egyptian, and Palestinian artists.
