Pepsi Battle of the Bands Season 3: Episode 7



Bayaan (Urdu: بیان) is a progressive/alternative rock band from Lahore, Pakistan. It is the winning band of Pepsi Battle of the Bands Season 3 in 2018. Appeared in Nescafe Basement, the band has performed throughout Pakistan before appearing in Pepsi Battle of the Bands. ‘Bayaan’, the concept behind making and naming the band was simple… Narrate thoughts and feelings in the simplest of manner. The 5-member band consists of Asfar Hussain (vocalist), Haider Abbas (bassist), Shahrukh Aslam (guitarist), Muqeet Shahzad (guitarist), and Mansoor Lashari (drummer). The band members Shahzad and Abbas knew each other for more than a decade and played together in the school band. They moved to the underground music circuit and met Mansoor Lashari. In between, Lashari and Abbas became a part of Nescafe Basement where they performed with Hussain and Aslam. Thus, Bayaan came into existence. Bayaan has announced the release of their debut album ‘Suno’ on the 2nd of Feb at the illustrious Lahore Music Meet festival. The album comprises 9 songs. Through this album, they pay homage to the band's collective inspirations and influences while staying distinctly Bayaan. The album has been released and distributed by years. The music video for the song Bekhabar was released earlier but later the song was made a part of the album. Flawless and tasteful, Bayaan knows all the right notes to play blending harmonies with the effortlessness only good musicians can perfect. Bayaan is fresh raw talent. Read more on Last.fm.
