Today, Golbang is one of the most popular world music ensembles of Scandinavia. They have four records and have performed on most of the biggest Scandinavian music stages as well as several international stages.
Lotta Johansson, producer at Musikens hus in Rättvik,(Sweden)states that “Rostam must have on of the best voices in Sweden! It’s clear, sensuous, moving and it tells experiences beyond words.”
In many ways, Golbang is a reflection of the nine members of the group, and each song can be performed in at least eight different ways. The variety of rhythms that the band uses can transform into completely new shapes, depending on who is listening and who is interpreting
Lots Johansson continues her presentation of the record Morid: “I don’t know another group with such a musical width, this is what world music sounds like when musicians from different cultures have found each other and really interact. The music is both traditionally Persian, symphonically Western, popular and folky – it is ingenious, nuanced, modern and still recognizable.”
