The Orient Express has been played on NTS in shows including Zel Zele w/ Debora Ipekel & Ece Duzgit, featured first on 18 January 2023. Songs played include Cobra Fever.

Originally from Europe this band moved to the States. Guy Duris was actually born on the Left Bank and later met Golesorkhi, who had been decorated by the Shah of Iran for his drumming and was interested in applying Eastern rhythms to Western music, in Iran. They met Bruno Giet, a Belgian pilot and guitarist, in Paris while travelling around Europe. Soon the three members headed for America and settled in New York's East Village initially but ended up in California where their album was recorded.

This act should not be confused with Liz Damon's Orient Express, who were from Hawaii and played cabaret music.
