Iran’s Pallet band launches concert tour in US

Pallet music band launches US concert tour in Portland, Oregan.

Iran’s Pallet music band has launched its new international concert tour with a successful performance in the US city of Portland.

The group went on stage in Portland, Oregan on September 11. The tour will continue with concerts in 11 other US cities and wrap up in Washington D.C on October 4.

According to bandleader and clarinetist Rouzbeh Esfandarmaz, Pallet will perform pieces from its two albums ‘Mr. Violet’ and ‘Tehran, Smile.’ 

“Unfortunately, other countries have not presented a good image of Iran and Iranians to their people,” said Esfandarmaz. “Pallet and other musicians should therefore introduce Persian music to the non-Iranian audience.”

Vocalist Omid Nemati, cellist Mahyar Tahmasebi, guitarist Kaveh Salehi and double-bass player Dariush Azar accompany Esfandarmaz during the tour.

The fusion band Pallet has held many concerts in Iran and other countries such as France, Germany, Sweden, Italy and the Netherlands.
