“Fire and Gold” by Seaon & Saman

Baha’i Blog’s “Studio Sessions” is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.

In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in San Francisco, USA with Seaon Shin and Saman Farid who sing “Fire and Gold” from the Writings of Baha’u’llah.

This song was filmed and recorded in San Francisco, USA, February 2017.
