"I Return" (Baz Amadam), the long awaited second release from Iranian born recording artist, Rana Farhan, arrives. Inspired by the great Persian poets, Rumi and Hafez, Farhan chose to record “I Return” in her native Farsi. Farhan sings each of these classic poems in a sultry, seductive voice set to a backdrop of modern blues and jazz. The result is a magnificent new sound that transcends cultural boundaries and demands your attention.
