Blushh
Blushh began in 2016 after a few years of Shab Ferdowsi making her way around the Los Angeles music scene as a photographer, event producer, and promoter. Some friends offered to record her songs she had just started writing and to play in her band, so she bought an electric guitar and booked a show before she was ready for it.
After Blushh went on their first tour in 2018, Shab came home feeling adrenaline like she’d never felt before. THIS was what she had been missing her whole life, and this is what she needed to do more of. In 2019 Shab and the band recorded an album, toured, played some exciting stages during SXSW, Treefort, Offbeat etc, performing to fans singing back lyrics, and kids who'd never heard of Blushh but threw themselves into the mosh pit that would form halfway through their sets. Shab reflects:
“Well everything ebbs and flows. I yearn for those crowded rooms, those loud and angsty stages, the dirty floors we'd wake up on. But I'm excited for wherever music takes me next. I feel lighter these days and I'm just going to let the music take me with it. That lightness is a feeling I’m hoping the album, C’est La Vie! reflects. Every song felt like an unraveling of what used to be into something new, something fresh, something vibrant.”
