About the Artist

We are proud to present the newest work from Aram Danesh entitled The Spot, a combined effort by Danesh, Adam Berkowitz. The Spot was created with the goal of uniting the best new sounds with the deepest musical roots.

"Bright, spunky guitar licks and jagged piano solos blaze by excellent rhythm section work, whether working over funky rock beats or hard swinging bop."

That’s what Listen.com has to say about the bold, provocative music coming from Marin guitarist Aram Danesh.

Raised in the war-torn country of Iran, Danesh discovered music at a young age. His early musical influences were John Coltrane, Peter Gabriel, and Courtney Pine. As a teenager Danesh discovered rock and roll, listening mostly to his favorite guitar player Carlos Santana.

At the age of 9 Danesh left Iran and has since lived and traveled all over the world. Spending four years in Germany, one in France and one in Switzerland sealed the European mark now found on his music. During his time in Europe, Danesh performed with several major acts in clubs and stadiums all over Europe. Sharing the stage with both Carlos Santana and Ravi Coltrane at the Juan Les Pins (1993) in Antibes, France was the realization of a childhood dream.

His multicultural background is now the basis of Danesh’s music. Boldly blending different cultural elements, styles, genres, and even languages, Danesh aims to create a danceable and "in the pocket" groove found more often in Europe than in the U.S.

Danesh has performed at many local San Francisco traditions such as the Black and White Ball, the Exotic Erotic Ball, and the North Beach Jazz Festival as well as the Zelt Music Fest in Germany.
