Experience the launch of Tribe, the debut spoken word album from Sukina Noor — Bristol City Poet and a celebrated voice in spoken word, poetry, and education.
A feminine seeker, Sukina’s work blends the timeless mysticism of Sufism with the grit and rhythm of modern city life. Tribe pairs her devotional poetry with hip hop roots, creating a powerful meeting of sound and spirit – sacred verse layered over soulful beats, exploring love, longing, and the divine in the everyday.
The night features a live set from Sukina, with guest poet Aliyah Arafah, singer-songwriter Chloe Rose opening the show, and DJ KMT The Freedom Teacher spinning roots reggae to ground the evening in rhythm, reverence, and connection.

Bristol City Poet
Sukina Noor was named Bristol City Poet in October 2024, tasked with creating 10 commissioned poems, performing at civic events, and leading outreach across the city.
Her work has explored themes of homecoming, belonging, and what Bristol means to its people. She has delivered workshops with Bristol Drugs Project and at her former schools, performed her inaugural poem to a sold-out St. George’s Bristol, led a public workshop at Arnolfini, and given a keynote at the University of Bristol.
