Zarbang is a collective of the finest percussionists from Iran and Afghanistan. Inspired by tribal rhythms, they utilize instruments of various cultures while staying true to the essence and origin of each. This new sound entails the use of vocalization, melody and various effects in the context of percussion. Zarbang s sound is dynamic, meditative and internal on one hand and ecstatic and trance inducing on the other, drawing upon Sufi and ancient Persian rhythms used for inducing altered states.
