Kourosh Kanani - guitar / Matt Davies - drums and electronics

Kourosh Kanani and Matt Davies are redefining the boundaries of contemporary music by weaving the rich traditions of Iran, India, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Kurdistamn into a modern jazz tapestry.

Through Kourosh's deeply expressive guitar work and Matt's innovative use of electronics and rethinking of the drum kit, their duo creates a powerful dialogue between important ancient cultural legacies and cutting-edge soundscapes.

Their music is both a tribute to the heritage of these diverse regions and a bold exploration of their modern relevance, offering audiences a mesmerising experience that transcends borders, time and genre. It's blend of tradition and innovation, rooted in jazz yet unbound by convention.
