Parviz + Helmar - Persian indie-funk

Parviz ★ Persian indie-funk + support Helmar Salón Sonoro 5.11.2026 @ Mezrab ★ Parviz Parviz's self-titled debut album is slated for 2026, evoking the spirit of Iran's pre-revolutionary '70s music scene. Lead single “Azadeh”, a female given name meaning free spirit & independence, nods to the “Woman Life Freedom” movement and the recent mass uprisings in Iran, with the artwork by Rana Fadavi emphasising their urgency. Its follow-up "Sappho's Fragments" has aired on BBC Radio 6 and totalled more than half a million streams since its release. Flowery, kaleidoscopic and contemplative, it’s like an old taping of Iran's beloved music show Rangarang brought back to life, with added DIY aesthetics and a certain indie flair. Fierce psychedelic guitars and flowing detuned synths infuse each track with emotion and nostalgia, resulting in a debut that's both rooted in Persian culture and distinctly modern. After a successful UK tour earlier this year that included 5 sold-out shows, Parviz will be back for the second leg of his Khorshid Khanoom Tour. https://www.instagram.com/parvizsolt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPT9HBD2Dq4 Helmar Helmar is the new project of Berlin-based artist Marieke...
