Hailed as “the Bob Dylan of Iran” by the New York Times, Mohsen Namjoo is a visionary artist who seamlessly blends the classical Persian setar with electric guitar, and fuses modern rock and blues vocal techniques with traditional Persian avaz (singing). His unique style of singing and effortless mixture of music from east and west has made him an iconic persona in contemporary world music.
