Jal is a classic example of those rare bands that made it big with their
debut single. But what is even more intriguing is the fact that their
incredibly famous song "Aadat" was perhaps the first one that made it
big solely through the Internet, way before its video came on air.
"Aadat" was named the best song of the year 2003 by The Musik. Within
days its video was declared the 4 th best video on the same channel.
'Aadat' remained on the top of the charts for over six months since its
video release. It is still the most frequently requested song on all TV and
Radio networks of Pakistan, India and USA .
Jal's single "Woh Lamhey" broke through to the charts instantly too and
stayed on the top for two continuous months
The Crew
Apart from the three full time band members,
Jal's live act includes Waqar Khan (eP) on Drums
and Sultan Raja (Call) on Rhythm guitars. Waqar
has been playing for eP since its formation more
than a couple of years ago as an adroit drummer
and joined Jal for their live acts as a session
player. Sultan Raja has been a regular member
of the band Call and is playing for Jal in their live
acts, also as a session player.
Now you got to know how great is this band
and its great song.
