Arash Avin was born in Tehran, Iran, at a time where it was a place of pure potential for growing musicians and performers. Unfortunately, a revolution hit his native country, which forbade the production and performance of most styles of music. Despite this forced silence, Arash Avin managed to keep his passion for music alive. 
 When the ban on music eased, Arash Avin released one of the first post-revolution albums, Do Saye, which, due to federal regulations, had to be soft-tempo and more melodic than dance. After receiving his Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts in Tehran, Arash Avin released a second, more upbeat album, named Safar. Although dance music was now legal, it was still forbidden to dance in public. Nevertheless, Safar soared high on the charts, where it became one of the top albums of the year. 
 Arash Avin then relocated to America to further explore his career in the vibrant Los Angeles music community. He has been the lead male vocalist in one of LA’s top world music groups.
