Irtaash - Shab Dhalay
One of my oldest friends from Islamabad, Yasir Jaswal, is the lead singer for this underground band in Pakistan called Irtaash. They’re set to release their album called “Kaala Safaid Asmaan” (Black and White Sky) this May and im stoked to see what they’ve come up with.
If you’re into music from pakistan and they sound familiar its possible its because you might have heard their other singles that have been very popular amongst Desi’s. They include but not limited to “Khauf”, “Kaali Ratien” and “Tu Nahi”.
