She is one of Eritrea's best known singers and her personal story is a chapter in Eritrea's history. Her father was a well-known person among the Kunama tribe. During his many years of struggle for a free Eritrea he gained the title "Fighting Gun" - a name the British gave him early in the 1950s - a play on the name "Faid Tinga". While her father was of the Kunama people, her mother grew up in the highlands and was of Tigray descent with grandparents from the Blen tribe. So Faytinga represents three of Eritrea's nine tribes.Faytinga herself participated in Eritrea's fight for independence from the age of fourteen, got her education via the struggle, and was a freedom fighter until Independence in 1991. She has always been interested in music and has developed her own style "in the field" that is her own blend of several traditional music forms.
