127 - Nobar (Live in Austin)

Founded in 2001 by a group of young Tehran artists and art students, 127 has found itself at the center of progressive cultural change in Iran.The band's music melds Iranian melodies and jazz with an alternative sound. The band's lyrics tell of the frustrations and joys of life, somehow managing to speak of their cultural time and place, while simultaneous reflecting universal frustrations of isolation, frustration, and hope.

This performance was filmed in Austin, Texas as a part of Dart Music International's International Night at Friends on Sixth Street to kick off their appearance at the 2008 SXSW Music Festival. Filmed and produced by Safo Tabo.

wtf is this

It's 127 (well 3/5 of them) playing at Friends Bar on 6th Street in Austin March 17, 2008. Thanks to unforeseen delays, they'd only been in country a few hours before this...

they are amazing, they are missing their brass section so that is why this performance is not as good as their studio stuff
