About the Performance

About Pallett Band

Pallett is one of the most influential and groundbreaking bands to emerge from Iran in recent years. The six-piece band fosters an eclectic approach to their music — a unique blend of Western instruments and Persian lyrics — creating a distinct style. In a country where creating music can be an insurmountable challenge, Pallett persists in incorporating commentary about their love of culture with hopes for a brighter future. Their 2013 debut album Mr. Violet broke sales records in Iran and, following their world tour, created a buzz, bringing them to the attention of international audiences around the globe.
