'Afghan Music In Exile: Mashhad 2022' is a unique release. Recorded In Mashhad in the northeast of Iran in May 2022, this album showcases the music of a culture facing an existential threat. To have recorded this work within Afghanistan would have been inviting attacks, arrest and torture, or worse still. The project was produced and managed on the ground by film-maker and musician Michel Gasco (Badieh, Orontes), and co-produced by Lachlan Dale (Worlds Within Worlds, Hashshashin & Black Aleph). Gasco's work with the Afghan community in Iran spans more than a decade, leading Michel to become a formal student of rubab maestro Nasim Khushnawaz.
