– Soulful pop sensation
In a short time, Asim Azhar has gone from being a viral teen star to becoming an established pop artist who captures the zeitgeist with addictive melodies and soulful voice.
Asim Azhar is a singer, songwriter and artist who has redefined the sound of modern South Asian pop and R&B, and his songs about love, vulnerability and romance charm fans across generations. He got his big break with the help of both Coke Studio and TikTok and with hits like “Jo Tu Na Mila” and “Tera Woh Pyar” he has also reached the milestone of becoming the youngest Pakistani artist with over 2 billion streams. Asim Azhar’s music – and popularity – has also managed to spread beyond national borders and in 2023 he collaborated with Norwegian pop star Astrid S on her song “Darkest Hour”.
Asim Azhar is known for his catchy songs and energetic live performances, and together with his band he will surely provide a brilliant ending to this year's Oslo Mela.
