Renowned Pakistani musician, producer and former bassist of the band Vital Signs, Shahi Hasan, performed LIVE on stage for close family and friends. 

The musician returned on stage after several years with throwback songs by his former band and included some original tracks as well. 

Shahi’s backup band included Royal Law on backing vocals and Yasin Farooqi on bass guitar. 

Following strict COVID SOPs which included masks and hand hygiene, the event was held at The District 19 Korangi in front of a close-knit circle from 7pm to 10pm. featuring performances included Emaad Rehman, Asad Hafeez, and Aziz Kazi. 

The mood was set with an instrumental version of the classic Vital Signs song, Dil Dil Pakistan; followed by Namumkin, Ajnabi, Sanwali and several others. 

When asked what initiated his interest in singing LIVE in front of an audience, Shahi stated, “You know, a lot of people follow Vital Signs, we still have a huge following. I thought everyone’s grown up and grown older but we still have that following. It seems that kids have been listening to us through their parents, cousins, family but they don’t know us personally, especially the younger kids. The younger generations know our names but they don’t really know who we were and what all music we’ve created. This is a little effort I want to make, in order to reintroduce the songs, especially the ones that have gone into the background and no one knows about them.” 

After a successful preview of his set, Shahi Hasan is said to release more tracks in 2021, including a track titled ‘Tum Nay Kaha Tha’ which is about personal evolutions with elements of romance as well. More details about Shahi’s upcoming songs will be released at a later date.
