P&F (Palash and Friends) have released their first solo album on the Internet last year. They will release a CD soon as they have already won the audience’s love through their rock fusion music with influence of eastern classical notes.
In an interview with the Dhaka Tribune, the band shared their future plans and aspirations:
What kind of genre does the band explore?
Rock- Fusion.
Tell us about your aim.
We are a Bangladeshi rock band trying to create a new type of music. In our debut album, we tried to create an awareness among the audience that as Bangalees, we have certain responsibilities towards our motherland. It is up to us to maintain the peace and make the country a safe place for the future generations.
What about your songs?
Our lyricists are basically our friends, most of them are professionals. As for our debut album Awoazz, most of the lyrics addresses real life situations. When we want to produce a new piece of work, we usually come up with a theme and try our level best to explain the idea to the lyricist, and they get it right almost every time.
What are the immediate career goals?
We are preparing ourselves to go for nationwide concerts.
Is the industry welcoming to new bands?
To make place in the audio industry is an uphill fight. It’s really very hard to make a difference because of the extreme competition. It has always been a tough industry. But, a new wave is observed with the emergence of the digital media. We are hopeful about the future.
Which one is the band’s signature song?
Tokai (from our debut album) is our signature song.
Why did you opt to go for digital release?
Digital media is the fastest way to reach a wide range of audience. Each and every one of our songs carry a message. So, we truly want to be heard by everyone. In addition, one of our music videos has been released worldwide on Youtube. More music videos will be released very soon.
