Who is Roshi Nasehi? Roshi Nasehi is a Welsh born singer-composer of Iranian parentage with a track record in electro-acoustic performance, collaboration, recording and workshops. She moved to London in 2000 and before long formed her much acclaimed experimental, electronic Welsh-Iranian folk pop project Roshi Featuring Pars Radio with prolific percussionist/producer Graham Dowdall (Nico, Cale, Pere Ubu). Roshi has also received several prestigious commissions including BBC Radio 3, So & So Circus Theatre and Birds Eye View for whom she created a live score to Mary Pickfords 1918 feature Amarilly Of Clothes Line Alley as part of the Southbank 2012 WOW festival. Roshi’s love for the intricacy of sounds has made it fit for expressing this art in Kuwait. With a view to widening local participation and enjoyment of the arts, the British Council Kuwait sought to commission a new work that steps outside of the gallery space to engage with the local environment, culture and the work of Kuwaiti artists.
