Rahat Fateh Ali Khan Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is a Pakistani musician, who has had several hits in Bollywood.. He is the nephew of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and son of Farrukh Fateh Ali Khan. While he has moved away from traditional qawwali as was presented by his father and uncle, he is doing a great deal to bring qawwali to the masses. Using his fame, he tries to share some highlights of qawwali in his major concerts. In addition to Qawwali, he also performs ghazals and other light music. Some of his renditions of his uncle’s originals have brought those old songs back into the listening spheres for younger generations. These include Mere rashke qamar, Tumhein dillagi bhool, and Allah hoo. One of the traditional qawwalis he sang with his uncle was attempted by Riyaaz in 2011. You can hear it below!
WADALI BROTHERS’ SONGS The Wadali Brothers – Puranchand Wadali and Pyarelal Wadali – are Sufi singers and musicians from Guru Ki Wadali in the Amritsar District in Punjab, India. Born into the fifth generation of musicians given to singing the messages of Sufi saints, the Wadali brothers dabbled in the most unexpected of professions before they became Sufi singers.Listen to soulful Wadali Brothers Songs online. Pyarelal contributed to the meager family income by playing the role of Krishna in the village raas leela. Their music has a beautiful richness to it. And it is because of this richness and the beautiful lyrics that we sing some of their pieces. One of their most famous songs, which was also recreated in Coke Studio India, was recorded byRiyaazQawwali Groupin 2010.
Riyaaz Qawwali performs at public, private, and commercial events- in a hope to widen the reach of Qawwali. The group may be contacted by phone.
