Cool people like cool things, which is why we asked Taraneh to share a taste of her taste on Perfectly Imperfect.

Taraneh is a New York City-based musician, journalist, and visual artist. She first landed on my radar when I saw her on a totally stacked bill with Evanora Unlimited, Ivy Knight, and Cooper B. Handy (LUCY) earlier this year, and I was blown away by her set. Last week Taraneh and Elusin (who I’ve raved about before) released “Spell”, a witch house cut laced with crunchy guitars and a fat bass line. She’s currently on tour with Evanora and Elusin in Europe, and working on her next album. Taraneh is also a meme-expert and investigative journalist with bylines in NBC News, USA Today, Dazed, and more. Lucky for us, Taraneh is here to tell us what she’s been into.
