Melbourne-based cultural bearer and singer- songwriter, Ymma Tierra (Samantha Levy) has captivated audiences at some of Australia’s most respected festivals and venues; including Dragon Dreaming, FRL, Warburton Arts Centre and Memo Music Hall - sharing festivals and the stage with acclaimed artists such as Rebecca Barnard, Tanya-Lee Davies, Kucha Edwards, Yothu Yindi & The Treaty Project. 

Her mission is to weave a "three-strand cord" between ancestral memory and the modern world. With a professional background as both an architect and the founder of a Nature School (Bush Kinder), Samantha brings a unique structural and ecological depth to her artistry. She lifts Hebrew scripture off the parchment and places it alongside the storytelling of the Australian bush, bridging the sacred space between the Mediterranean, the Hebrew scroll, and the Eucalyptus. 

Currently recording her debut album for release in late 2026, Ymma Tierra uses acoustic vocals, loop pedals, and natural ambient sounds to create a "sonic ritual" of resilience. Her music reflects the vast green plains of the Australian Eucalyptus and Fern, she calls home, offering an invocation that serves as a bridge between the visible and the invisible, the architectural past and the wild, rooted present. By reclaiming her voice after years of silence, Ymma Tierra empowers her audience to reconnect with their own diaspora hearts and the sacred energies of the Earth.
