Aurthohin is set to embark on its first-ever tour of the United States later this year. The band will perform across various cities from the last week of October to mid-December, with shows scheduled in New York, Pennsylvania, Los Angeles, Chicago, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, and Virginia.
After months of uncertainty, concert enthusiasts finally have a reason to rejoice. Several concerts had been postponed in recent months due to security concerns. However, the wait is over, as two major concerts are set to take place today at separate venues in the capital, featuring an exciting lineup of musicians.
Aurthohin is set to deliver a solo concert that aligns with the technology-driven future of the world. The concert titled "Aurthohin 2077: A Cyberpunk Odyssey" promises an innovative experience inspired by the popular video game “Cyberpunk 2077”.
Aurthohin shared exciting news with their fans on New Year’s by introducing their newest member through an official announcement.
It is rather telling of the people when the army has to show up because of how people behave at a concert. “They brought an international band to a mall to perform,” said Sakib, who had attended the concert with high hopes. “It was a total joke. Organisers started taking selfies with the band mid-show, while Jal had to ask 20 times for a light to be turned off.”
The night was a celebration of rock music, marking the 20th anniversary of Jal's debut album "Adat", and the gathering of legends. Scroll through the album to catch glimpses of the night.
The "Legends of the Decade" concert, initially scheduled for last Friday, was cancelled due to heavy rain. However, the event set to feature performances by the Pakistani band Jal alongside Bangladeshi bands Aurthohin, Vikings, and Conclusion has been rescheduled to take place today with a change of venue.
Mumtaz spoke with palpable excitement about returning to Bangladesh. "We are going to perform in Bangladesh after over a decade," he said, his eyes twinkling with nostalgia. "All Jal fans are probably grown up now, like me," he added with a chuckle. "But still they remember all the songs, it's so overwhelming for us to come here again and receive such a heartwarming welcome."
Renowned 90s band vikings will perform at the “Legends of the Decade” concert, scheduled to take place on September 27. Vikings have now officially joined the lineup for this much-anticipated event.
Aurthohin's vocalist, Saidus Salehin Khaled Sumon, widely recognised as Bassbaba Sumon, fought a prolonged battle against cancer. Apart from other health issues, he underwent surgeries for eye and spine complications.
In 2017, after receiving medical treatment, he was returning from a hospital in Bangkok, when a car suddenly hit him. The accident caused damage to his spinal cord. Subsequently, he had to undergo further treatment. After extensive treatment for both cancer and spinal cord injuries, Sumon returned to the country in 2021.
In a city where most youth are confined to social circle jerks of restaurants and malls; these concerts are much-needed injections of life. Whilst there is a risk of fatigue and overuse, as it is with any industry, it is important that organisers persevere and stick to what makes them unique.
The project initially started two years ago, but two months back they started again from where it was left. Shishir said, "I was going through a nervous breakdown, thinking at one point this won’t get done. But it turns out that song is doing great now."
Aurthohin has finally released its first studio album after six years, titled Phoenix Er Diary-1.
After almost six years, Aurthohin will finally be launching a new album, titled "Phoenix Er Diary-1" in December.
Now, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Aurthohin has returned with a new single from their upcoming album, “Phoenix Diary 1”.
