Shadmehr Aghili (born 1973) is an Iranian musician, singer, and songwriter born in Tehran, Iran.
Aghili composed a great deal of music for other singers. Finally, in 1997, his first album was presented, Bahareman (“My Spring”), which was a collection of classic and folkloric music played and arranged by Aghili (violin, guitar, piano, keyboard). In the same year his voice was heard in Mabood, his first vocal music, and afterward he continued work that resulted in Mosafer (“The Traveller”), his first complete vocal album. In 1999 he created a revolutionary album, Dehati (“The villager”), with rock and roll, 6/8, and popular rhythms. However, none of his songs were permitted to be played on public media (i.e., TV). Shadmehr worked hard to get permission for his Adam o Hava (Adam & Eve), an album that was supposed to be released in 2001. However, not only did he not, but also, he was banned from working as a singer or musician or appearing on TV shows.
Having left with no better choice, he decided to leave Iran in 2002 in order to continue his music in Canada, away from any restrictions. Khiali Nist (“No Worries”), Adamforoush (“Traitor,” 2004), and “Popcorn” are his most recent albums released in Canada and the United States. In addition, Shadmehr acted in two movies, namely, Pare Parvaz (2000) and Shabe Berahneh (2001).
In October 2006, Shadmehr entered the United States to perform a U.S. tour with his first concert date scheduled for November 17, 2006, at the Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C. Shadmehr Aghili is now living with his wife, Mia Mesa, in Los Angeles, California.
