Golazin Ardestani, known internationally by her stage name Gola, is a British-Iranian actress, singer, and human rights activist. In Iran, solo female singers are legally prohibited from recording, releasing, or performing music publicly, a restriction that ultimately forced her into exile. Since then, Gola has built a global music career and begun making her mark as an actress on screen and theatre. She has performed on major international stages-from the O2 in London to Scotiabank Arena in Toronto and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., bringing her powerful voice to audiences around the world.
Deeply passionate about performance, she is known for her love of the stage, her character-driven performances, and her compelling portrayals of emotionally layered, socially resonant, and complex characters. Gola is also the founder of Zan Recordings, a UK-based label dedicated to amplifying the voices of women in music and beyond.
