PERSIAN POP: International star Farzad Farzin comes to the Flint Center

Iranian pop star and actor Farzad Farzin has faced many setbacks in his career, but he isn’t letting that stop him. After leaving his former band, Corouz Group, to pursue a solo career, he found himself fighting for the rights of his music and facing an uphill battle against continued leaks. His eclectic sound features traditional Persian melodies and pop-oriented arrangements. He’s scored chart-topping hits in Europe, and was recognized with an award from Iran’s Musicema Awards for best live performance. (SM)
