Tara Nome Doyle + Ava Rasti

A day before The Great Escape starts, Fatcat Records and von der haardt present Tara Nome Doyle and Ava Rasti at SJQ!

Berlin-based Irish-Norwegian artist Tara Nome Doyle unveils her third album—a journey that ventures outward into the unknown and inward to the depths of the self. Along the way, it explores pain, farewells, new beginnings, and ultimately, acceptance. Songs like Lighthouse, Bad Days, and Dive In feature refrains destined for large venues, their powerful melodies soaring on pop-infused harmonies before retreating into the intimacy of the verses.

Ava Rasti is an Iranian-born artist, who creates and composes out of the country’s capital Tehran. Both a pianist and bass guitarist, in her late teens Rasti founded the post- punk girl group. However, since 2020 she has worked solo, experimenting with the interface between ambient, modern classical, and drone. Rasti’s interest in storytelling led her to soundtrack the movie, “Double Life”. In 2023, following a series of sonically evolving singles, she self-released the long-players, “Ginestra” and “The Living Room”.
