Maz Karandish

Maz Karandish grew up in Orange County, the youngest of four in a family of musicians and poets from Shiraz. He studied North Indian classical music as a disciple for years, took up the setar and the oud, found meditation at eighteen, then spent a decade playing festivals. He also earned a PhD in psychology: today he sees therapy clients Tuesday to Thursday and plays electronic sets built on Persian and Indian instruments under the name Mah Ze Tar, strings of the moon.
