Pallett Band has gained iconic status as one of the most influential and groundbreaking bands to emerge from Iran in recent years.The seven-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 Band persists in incorporating commentary about their love of culture with hopes for a brighter future.
