Khumariyaan Live in Concert

Art for religious fundamentalism is, like water for fire, mere existence, is a form of resistance. Khumariyaan was born in the age of Talibanisation, sectarian violence, military operations and neo-imperialist expansions, in the region which is a gateway to Central Asia, in the city of Peshawar. A band of musicians whose tunes are based on their native music, with nuances of other native sounds of the world, our focus is to elevate music to the medium of peace. Musically, we are also trying to break the tradition of South Asian vocal based musical culture, thus we are primarily an instrumental band with little fragments of vocals to complement the overall harmony of our music.
