Asian Arts Agency is pleased to present the 'Sufi Sisters' Hashmat Sultana in the UK this July.
Popularly known as ‘the Sufi Sisters’ in India, Hashmat and Sultana have been winning the hearts of audiences throughout India over the last two years. Performing traditional and contemporary Punjabi folk and Sufi music, and featuring poetry and songs from the great Punjabi Sufi poets such as Baba Bulleh Shah and Shah Hussain, Hashmat Sultana have been mesmerising audiences with their versatility and powerful vocal performances.
Propelled into the limelight in 2016 as part of the Indian talent show Sa Re Ga Ma Pa, Hashmat Sultana received rave reviews from Bollywood composers Pritam Chakraborty and Sajid-Wajid with their beautiful and electrifying vocal abilities. The aspiring sisters have won over audiences with their refreshing take on traditional folk and ancient Sufi music, performing the mesmerising devotional music of the Sufis with incredible versatility and maturity beyond their years.
With a Domino’s Studio session in 2017 and the release of their single Rang, which has received over 15 million YouTube views in less than a year, Hashmat Sultana have quickly developed a loyal and growing fan base.
Watch Rang on YouTube:
An exciting duo to watch, Hashmat Sultana are the most talented Sufi singers to come out of India in the last two years. If you love traditional folk and Sufi music from the Indian subcontinent, these Sufi Sisters are a must see act this summer.
