KOUROSH KANANI DUO
Drawing inspiration from Kourosh’s Iranian-Azeri heritage and his deep command of South Indian rhythm, the duo crafts a soundscape rooted in tradition, yet forward-looking. Presenting music from their forthcoming third album, Gisu, featuring a bold interplay between virtuosic guitar and electronically infused drums, this is a truly unmissable act.
Line-up:
Kourosh Kanani – Guitar
Matt Davies – Drums
ARIN KESHISHI QUINTET
Led by bassist and composer Arin Keshishi, an Armenian musician from Iran now based in Amsterdam, Arin blends the rich musical traditions of Armenia and Iran while creating something entirely new. His debut album, Self-Reflection, is a compelling portrait of his personal and cultural journey. The quintet also features world-class musicians from Europe and Iran, all of whom share Arin’s vision and bring their own mastery to the ensemble.

Arin Keshishi – Bass
