A project that began sometime in 1995, Barzin was a solo endeavor at its inception. Somewhere along the way, however, Barzin shed its solitary skin and introduced a wide array of characters into its sound. From amongst a rotating cast of musicians, who occasionally made appearances on recordings and at performances, three individuals slowly became a fixture of this project. The three characters in question are Mike Findlay, Suzanne Hancock, and Tony Dekker. With the addition of these musicians the sound of the music has continued to remain true to the esthetics of quietness and minimalism. It still concerns itself with exploring the quiet side of pop.

In 2003, Barzin released its self-titled debut album through the Montreal based label, Where Are My Records. The following year an E.P. titled “Songs for Hinah,” was released through the French based label, Hinah. And in 2006, the second full-length album titled “My Life In Rooms” was released in Canada through Weewerk records, and in Europe through Monotreme records.

Barzin, you stole my first name. What the hell, man? I think you're the only other Barzin I've heard of. If you come to Toronto, hit me up; beer's on me.
