Parnaz Partovi & Electric Monks' music is rooted in Iranian music and modern poetry influenced by contemporary styles of rock, blues, Latin and Caribbean music. The band was founded by Parnaz Partovi and Shahin Baratpour in 2013. When Parnaz moved to Brooklyn in 2014, she started working with drummer and Kamancheh player Kaveh Haghtalab and guitar player Armin Antique. Together they have redefined the sound of the band based on each member’s background in music and are actively producing new material in collaboration with Shahin Baratpour who resides in DC. The band is currently working on the release of two singles and touring around the US.
