Niyaz UK debut Tueday 23 June ICA

What does sacred Sufi music have to do with trance electronica? Iranian trio Niyaz pull it all together with their unique take on wired tradition. Their music draws on 300 year old Persian folk songs and poetry zapped with layered electronica which creates a mystic hit, with Azam Ali providing some truly ethereal vocals. Put yourself in a higher state and catch their debut UK show.
