Meet our founder
Mirna Nakhla is an Egyptian singer-songwriter whose music lives at the intersection of Cinematic Nostalgia, Vintage Fantasy and Mediterranean Mystery.
Born and raised in Egypt, Mirna began writing poetry at the age of 12, turning her poems into songs by 15 while teaching herself piano. What began as a private refuge slowly evolved into a fully realized artistic identity.
After studying fashion design in Milan at Istituto Marangoni, Mirna returned to Egypt and founded her luxury brand ETERNA PALMA, a visual extension of the same romantic and mythic universe that defines her music.
Her sound blends orchestral strings, slow-burning percussion, and intimate yet layered vocals, drawing from the glamour of Old Hollywood, the sensuality of 1960s Mediterranean cinema, and the melancholic undertones of modern indie noir.
With each release, her voice has grown more present, moving from ethereal dreamscapes to dramatic, string-laden compositions that embody softness as power and nostalgia as rebellion.
Her debut single “Flower Child” introduced her as a romantic idealist unafraid of vulnerability. Her later releases lean deeper into cinematic arrangements and darker textures, establishing her as a storyteller rooted in feminine mythology, heritage, and fate.
Mirna’s artistry carries echoes of Golden Age Hollywood, Italian Dolce Vita, Liberating Woodstock days, and her ancient Egyptian and Arabian lineage, bridging past and present through a lens of modern femininity.
Her music is for those who feel deeply, love intensely, and believe that softness is not weakness, but strength.
The message she carries is to be authentic and
true to oneself despite the environment born into. There’s no greater sin than for one to go against the
nature of their soul. Strength and courage are found in being unapologetic and
authentic to your calling and soul. Strength is found in the pursuit of one’s vision against all odds. It encourages women
to manifest their identity and express who they are unapologetically. The
ultimate goal in life is to live a loving life, to spread kindness and love.
