Ajam (Persian: عجم) is an Iranian roots music project that creates original contemporary music by utilizing elements of the native music of Iran. In particular, the focus of this project is on "people’s" music and has been developed through research and field studies. The Ajam project started in London in early 2010 and has since performed various concerts across Europe, North America and the Middle East.
