Rock music is alive in the Middle East!!!

Text by Sohrab Saadat Ladjevardi

Tonight after midnight while practising on my sax, I listened to the radio station BBC World SERVICE which featured the Afghani rock band KABUL DREAMS. They were interviewed and did a short acapella.

So I got the idea to look for them in YouTube and check out how they sound as a band. I found one. After watching it I wondered how Rock bands in Iran, Pakistan and India would sound. You know, Afghanistan’s neighbors. Again YouTube helped me out. I found some interesting videos which I really enjoyed. Each video has a personal touch and tells a specific story. Please enjoy and listen to their stories and messages.
