Tired of the same old LA-Persian pop music? Come check out the New York City debut of the Abjeez! Already making waves in Europe, Abjeez will be coming to New York University's Kimmel Center on Saturday April 28th for ONE NIGHT ONLY!



abjee (aab.gee)

Persian slang for sister ... and that's just what they are - Safoura and Melody Safavi.



The Abjeez along with their colorful crew of musicians will be playing their own unique blend of Persian world pop. You can check out their latest video, "Eddeaa" on YouTube.com and hear more of the band's music on their website: www.abjeez.com.



Hypernova. Out of a musical landscape dominated by more traditional Prog-rockers, Metallers and the increasingly popular electronic and hip-hop sound, an Indie band named Hypernova was born.
