Sound Series: Rostam with special guest Joy Again

Thursday, February 8, 2018, 8 p.m.

A man with short, brown hair in a gray shirt, gray pants, and white sneakers has a black guitar with white accent lines on the edges on his shoulder. One hand is on the neck of the guitar while the other is holding a microphone on a microphone stand. He is singing into the microphone in front of a crowd of people. There is scaffolding in the background that is lit up in red. There is also fog around his feet.
