More from Coke Studio: Coke Studio Gigs Presents Jimmy Khan, Asrar and Sara Haider

After a season full of entertaining performances Coke Studio has been organizing gigs all over Pakistan featuring its best artists. The gig came to Karachi last week for a musical showcase of Jimmy Khan, Asrar and Sara Haider in their best melodious forms. The concert took place at the Commune Artist Colony in Karachi on 25th January 2015. A welcome note and introduction of Coke Studio Gigs and the artist line up by MC Nabiya opened the event.

                              

Asrar was first on stage, followed by Haider and then Khan who concluded the evening full of energetic, musical performances. In addition to the entertaining music, guests were provided with their own custom personalized Coke bottles, which I think was especially cool!

I had the pleasure of running into some awesome crowd including Ayesha Khan, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Sanam Saeed who seemed to enjoy the evening like anything.

For those who don’t know much about the gigs, Coke Studio Gigs is a music platform that features new and upcoming artists from different academic and social backgrounds, coming together to celebrate the diverse and unique music of Coke Studio, and making it their own by executing the popular platform’s tracks through their own personal style and flair. The initiative is a result of popular feedback generated by fans of Coke Studio, who demanded a separate platform for up and coming Pakistani musicians to showcase their talent. Coke Studio Gigs is now in its second season and has already highlighted the talent of several Pakistani musicians who have gone on to perform at the highest levels of our music industry.

Here’s to many more seasons and gigs full of talented, entertaining musicians! Xx
