About Ghanbari
Shahyar Ghanbari (Persian: شهیار قنبری), the legendary Persian modernist poet, singer, songwriter, composer, and filmmaker, known primarily as the founder of the New Wave of Persian modern songwriting with an impassioned cult following, is perhaps better described as the most distinctive voice of contemporary Iranian pop/rock music. Many Iranians, especially the young, consider Shahyar Ghanbari as the Leonard Cohen of Iran whose literary and musical achievements and contribution to the Iranian art scene are, quite simply, remarkable. Shahyar's imaginative songs and ingenious lyrics-marked by textural experimentation, rich aesthetic standards, and impressionistic subject matter-made him one of the most successful and influential modern Iranian artists. His writings, poems, films and songs, seen as a whole, form a true portrait-of-the-artist.
