About
SoSaLa is a band from New York, led by the sax player Sohrab Saadat Ladjevardi, who blends melancholic melodies with those of his native Iran. Fueled by improvisation with lo-fi electronics, the diverse Middle Eastern, African and Western instruments, such as fula flute, talking drum, sabar, electric tar, piano, vibes, electric trumpet and guitar, make for an ambient and psychedelic take on World music. Ladjevardi's vocals give a dada-istic touch to social and political issues. Altogether, they call the music "nu world trash". And that gives the title to their debut CD "Nu World Trash."
