Personal Life & Music
Career
Pakistan is the land of talented and creative people.
This is not just a sentence but it’s the reality.
In every sphere of life we can see talented Pakistanis
working hard and getting higher places. Just take example
of Music. Our musicians are known around the world for
their quality music. No matter if they are big names like
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Junoon etc. or some underground
musicians. Their music is very rich in its own kind but
Pakistani touch is prominent in it. One of such talented
upcoming singer is Abbas Ali Khan.
Abbas is talented artist who has spent most of
his life in making music. Pakistan is lucky enough to
have such
talented people around; only thing that still lacks is
their proper projection and promotion. This time it was
good initiative by BMN to select an artist from underground
music scene. Do support the artist by listening his music
and you can also check out for CD of “Humsafar” in
a music store near you.
Vocalist, Composer, Lyricist, Keyboardist, Rhythm
Guitarist, Graphic Designer, Animator and Visual Effects
Designer.
It may sound like "Jack of all and Master of none" but
Abbas Ali Khan is indeed a Master of all these forms of
Art. Abbas has a computer science background and is now
days working with a multimedia company as a Project Manager.
After years of hard work and sleepless nights, Abbas has
achieved a lot at the young age of 23.
At the age of 5 he started playing his two-octave
keyboard, not knowing anything about scales or the grammar
of music, but still playing according to scale. Abbas
does not belong to any gharana and has had no formal training in music. He
belongs
to the Nawabs family, with Nawabzada Liaqat Ali Khan being his great grandfather.
Despite that bloodline, Abbas never took much of an interest in politics and
took to music and the arts from an early age. As every one in his family is
a music lover and a good listener, being out of scale
has always been considered
to be a big sin. Abbas has just signed a three-album contract with BMN Records.
The first album, Humsafar has been released containing 11 songs, and Abbas
has done all the lyrics, composition, arrangement and
keyboard sequencing. A special
track on the album is an instrumental with Ustad Salamat Hussain, which he
did at age 14. Work on the second album has already begun,
with a strong focus on
oriental and fusion music. Besides music, Abbas also has an eye for filmmaking,
editing and visual effects. He likes using these skills in low budget experimental
productions. Abbas has just finished production of his second music video for
the song Jane Kia Hay.
