Haale

Haale evokes both the spiritual and traditional culture of her parents’ homeland of Iran and the energy of psychedelic rock and roll from the sounds of New York City, where she was born. Her music and her message are formed by the powerful combination of these influences, invoking both a swaying trance and a rock sensibility she describes as “psychedelic Sufi trance rock.”
Haale never strays far from the cultural and mystical influences of her Persian roots, but she’s no throwback to the New Age movement. Haale’s music is a new kind of global rock, and while some try to find the neat stylistic pigeonhole for her, the best response is to go along with her, wherever that may lead.
