I’m currently the vocalist and a creative force behind NAMHIN, an alternative-rock and nu-metal band, while working on our upcoming EP. Jon Kabir has also been a major inspiration throughout my journe without his influence, I might never have found the courage to become the musician I am today.

Alin

Music

Actually music is in my blood. I've got a musician family. From childhood, i am singing. Then i learned keys, guitars and drums by myself. And composing song was a game for me. I enjoyed it a lot. I've worked with many bands like underground heavy metal bands and also mainstream rock bands. Currently i've five releases from my band named Sketch. And i am working on my double disc album with my band. As a frontman, it's very challenging to make an album and composing songs one after another. But the game is too close to finish. That's it.

Maynur Rahman Khan

Music

My musical journey is a little unconventional. I started learning music through folk, but from a young age, I was deeply drawn to Rabindranath Tagore’s melodies, especially his Baul-inspired songs. Rabindra Sangeet therefore became a major part of my musical identity. Alongside it, I love exploring Lalon, Kazi Nazrul Islam, Bangla modern and classic songs, as well as Bangla band music. At the same time, I’m trying to write and compose my own songs, slowly finding my own musical voice.
