Tranquil, yet bold, Mahan Abdollahi's multi-instrumental prowess highlights a side of progressive rock that has never been tried in his home country Iran.
Mahan Abdollahi is a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist from Mashhad, Iran, and started his musical journey in 2011. He began to write original music in 2020. He was also the guitarist of the metalcore band One Missing Link.
Mahan's primary influences are well-known metal bands such as Metallica, System of a Down, Opeth, and Tool but he borrows elements from various musical genres, including Iranian folk music.
Mahan's work differs from his contemporaries because of his use of vocals without the use of lyrics.
Music fans open to new musical experiences, and those with unorthodox views on music will enjoy Mahan’s unique musical expressions.
Fans should expect creative uses of Iranian folk music and instruments in their future work.
