PALLET Live in Los Angeles - April 27, 2024
Farhang Foundation and the Alex Theatre Performing Arts Center proudly presented the 2nd annual Iranian concert series in Glendale, featuring the triumphant return of PALLETT to Southern California after an eight-year hiatus. The sold-out performance captivated fans with renditions of their biggest hits and new, never-before-performed songs from their latest album, "Nesf ol Nahar Mabda (Prime Meridian)". Pallett represents the alternative voice of Iran's current generation, seamlessly blending contemporary and classical Persian poetry, navigating a nuanced dialogue between modern social issues and cultural heritage. The group, comprising three classically trained musicians, defies musical conventions by infusing their compositions with modern motifs. Recognized as pioneers in alternative music, their authentic sound combines classical, traditional, jazz, rock, gypsy, and Iranian folk influences. Pallett's enduring success both domestically and abroad attests to their unwavering dedication. By integrating Iranian and Eastern scales with Western instruments, they have transitioned from an unconventional band to a mainstream phenomenon. Standing out in their genre, Pallett has amassed a massive following nationwide and internationally, with sold-out shows in Europe, Australia, the USA, and Brazil. Their journey, marked by hundreds of successful performances, highlights their relentless momentum and global appeal. Pallett remains an unstoppable force, captivating diverse audiences worldwide. It was such a thrill for us to welcome the one and only Pallett پالت back to L.A. after eight long years of waiting. We applaud the Alex Theatre Performing Art Center of Glendale on their commitment in collaborating with Farhang Foundation on this 2nd Annual Iranian Concert series. Special thanks to Erwin Khachikian for all his hard work in producing this concert and making it a reality. Thank you to all who joined us for this sold out event. Another memorable evening of great music for the history books.
