01 / Overview

Three jobs on one page

An artist site has to convey the register of the music before a single note plays, let a visitor listen and watch without leaving the page, and make tour dates and booking immediately findable. It also has to serve an international and a Persian-speaking audience at the same time, while carrying a great deal of video, audio and photography.

04 / Approach

A front end the artist can feed

The site is a Next.js App Router front end reading from a headless WordPress instance on an admin subdomain, so biography, tracks, gallery images and tour dates can be updated without touching the interface. Audio players, the lightbox gallery and the scroll-driven animation are React components; rendering is server-side and static where it can be, which is what keeps a media-heavy site fast.

05 / Experience

Stage light first, text second

A full-screen performance video, serif display type and a dark, stage-lit palette set the tone above the fold. The pacing below it is deliberately gallery-like: upcoming performances, discography and a booking form, each given room rather than compressed into a grid. Everything is available in English and Persian through one switcher.

06 / Results

Traffic, revenue and conversion figures belong to the client, so we do not publish them. What follows is what the delivered build contains.
