Mirza, Persian Heavy Electric Blues Band
author: IPCI am a Bluesman, a Blues fan, a Blues collector and a Blues historian. I listened to the Mirza Band and it blew me away! Such caliber music coming from Iran is a mystery! How can it be? That's why we call them the Persian Underground! Mirza Band is a Persian Heavy Electric Blues Band, playing some Low Down Underground Blues from Tehran! This is pure Blues. Dig it man, this is the Tehran Blues! Listen to Babak Mirzakhani, the front Bluesman of the Mirza Band sing and play the electric guitar, but with your eyes closed. If Babak does not sing in Persian, you can easily mistake him for Luther Allison, Sun Seals or some other Black American heavy electric Bluesman master! Yes, he is almost that good! Check him out, he is the top Persian Bluesman inside Iran. (for more read the article)
