ERSİN FAİKZADE RELEASES “PERSIAN FIRE”: A 10-TRACK FARSI ALBUM MAKING GLOBAL IMPACT

On February 28, Ersin Faikzade released his 10-track Farsi album “Persian Fire” on all major digital music platforms worldwide, creating significant excitement in Iran and across Farsi-speaking countries. Centered on themes of love, philosophy, humanity, and freedom, the album features songs entirely written, composed, and performed by Faikzade himself.

No stranger to Middle Eastern music, Faikzade previously collaborated in 2011 with Iranian superstar Sattar in Los Angeles on the project “Simin Bari,” which was met with widespread acclaim. Over the years, he has consistently included Farsi works in his concert repertoire, expressing deep admiration for the poetic richness and artistic depth of the Persian language.

Beyond music, Faikzade is also known for his literary work. In 2020, he wrote a novel about Princess Soraya, bringing renewed attention to the life and emotional world of one of Iran’s most iconic royal figures. Looking ahead, the artist announced that his new novel about Farah Pahlavi is set to be released in 2026, further strengthening his cultural connection to Iranian history and heritage.

Speaking about the new album, Faikzade said, “Farsi poetry and music represent one of the most magnificent artistic languages in the world. With ‘Persian Fire,’ I wanted to reflect that spirit in its purest form — the passion, the emotion, and the cultural fire within.”

The album has received strong support particularly from the Iranian diaspora. In Canada and the United States, tracks from “Persian Fire” have started playing in nightclubs, while Iranian listeners across social media platforms are sharing the songs with messages of love and pride.

Addressing the sensitive period currently unfolding in the Middle East, the artist also shared a message of hope:
“The Middle East is going through very difficult times. The shadow of war has spread across the region. I hope my songs can act like a dove of peace, bringing harmony and happiness throughout the Middle East. I hope people can dance freely to these songs and find hope together.”

“Persian Fire” is being described not only as a music album but as a cultural bridge — a melodic expression of freedom, unity, and shared human emotion. With this release, Ersin Faikzade’s artistic journey continues to resonate powerfully on the international stage — not only through music, but also through literature that honors Iran’s rich historical legacy.
