Nima AhmadiehRad

Born in 1988 in Tehran in a family of artists and musicians, Nima grew up with all kinds of musical instruments around him falling in love with the guitar and rock music in his early teen years.
He spent several years training with some of the best rock & roll guitar players in Iran and later formed a band with high school friends, playing gigs in spite of all the risks and limitations on musicians in Iran.
Nima moved to Toronto with his family in 2010, studied “ Visual Effects for Film and TV “ at Seneca College and has been working as a VFX compositor in a number of well-known visual effects studios.
He also played in different bands and on live shows with famous Iranian artists, but his real passion was to have his own band.
They formed “Rhythm and Vibes” together with his sister Sara (singer, song writer, piano player) and a close friend, Siavash (percussionist).
He will also perform in Tirgan with 1507, which is another independent project with a group of his musician friends.
“We enjoy every minute of writing, composing and playing our own songs and it is a real thrill to watch the number of our fans grow day by day”. –Nima Ahmadieh
