Best known for his resonant voice and Sufi inspired melodies, Arieb Azhar is fast becoming a star in Pakistan, having spent over a decade in Croatia where he produced two albums of purely Irish music.
It was Arieb’s desire to reconnect with his roots and heritage that led him back to the country and in 2006, he launched himself with the release of single Husn-e-Haqiqi (Beauty of truth) from his debut album Wajj. This record is heavily inspired by the poetry of Sarmad Sehbai, Khawaja Ghulam Farid and Bulleh Shah and Arieb’s genre has come to be recognized as spiritual lounge music.
This 2009, Arieb takes us on a devotional journey complete with poetry, harmony and spirituality at Coke Studio.
