Take It Easy Hospital is a currently London based band from Iran. Formed by singer-songwriter and composer Ash Koosha also known as Ashkan Kooshanejad and singer-songwriter Negar Shaghaghi in Tehran, the duo has been playing as an underground Indie band since 2008.
Their first single demo song Human Jungle was recorded in July 2008 and received a lot of positive feedback from fans that encouraged them to move further in their new music life and resulted in their first EP "Human Jungle" and Singles " My Sleepy Fall " and " Chasing The Sun ". The band are influenced by Terry riley, Steve Reich and Sigur Rós.[1] The two starred in a fiction-documentary film by acclaimed Iranian director Bahman Ghobadi in 2009. The film which was made without a permit follows their story trying to find live members to play in some festivals in the UK. Due to the film's success and the post election turmoil during the summer of 2009 in Iran, Kooshanejad, Shaghaghi and Ghobadi were forced to ask for asylum and have not been able to return since. This is also the case with a few other people who appeared in the film. Professional actor Hamed Behdad however, was able to return to Iran and continue his acting career.
