Hailing from Iran, Shervin Boloorian has made waves with his distinctive brand of folk-pop, highlighting sounds from both the East and the West. His second release of the year, the single was recorded and released in both Persian and English, and comes produced by Sting’s award-winning producer Kipper Eldridge.
Starting from a humble beginning, of an acoustic guitar and a gentle vocal, ‘My Free Heart’ spills out onto the airwaves, telling tales of peace and hope. The single’s simplicity is its true beauty; it’s not over-engineered or produced, it comes as it is, and true to itself. Boloorian’s empowering melodies breathe a breath of hope across the airwaves, whilst gentle strings lift the track, blessing it with an ethereal edge.
Diving into the release, Shervin explains, “This song is my tribute to anyone who has ever stood up for freedom and dignity. It’s also my way of sharing the beauty and humanity of Iran with the world.”
