Googoosh

Sun Dec 25, 2022 8:00 PM @The Chelsea at the Cosmopolitan | Born Faegheh Atashin in Tehran, Iran, in 1950, Googoosh is still wowing audiences with her vocal prowess and stage presence today. From her first award, the Best Singer prize at the 1971 San Remo Festival in Italy, her fate as a globally beloved diva and icon of Iranian pop music was sealed. That same year, her 7-inch record, released under the stage name Gougoush, won First Prize at the Cannes Midem trade fair and was certified gold. The following year, Googoosh received the first-ever Arts of Tunisia Medal. Also that year, she she sang at the Carthage Music Festival, and one year later, in 1973, she sang at the Cantagiro Music Festival. Los Angeles’ Microsoft Theatre also recognized Googoosh with two awards for record-setting concerts. Fast-forward to 2014, and Googoosh received the World Music Award for Best Iranian Female Singer, followed in 2017 by the Festigious Film Award for Best Music Video. Googoosh released 11 studio albums between 1970 and 1978. In 1979 she returned to her home country of Iran out of a sense of loyalty following the revolution that, among other consequences, banned her from recording and performing music, and she remained there for 21 years. After she moved to Canada in 2000, Googoosh made her comeback with a worldwide Comeback Tour, releasing seven more albums over the next 15 years. In addition to her success as a singer, Googoosh is also a successful actress, with more than 30 movie credits to her name, among the most popular and successful (titles translated from the original Persian):The Window, Travelling Mate and Nazanin
