Arooj Aftab / Vijay Iyer / Shahzad Ismaily: Love in Exile (2LP)

Last year, singer and multi-instrumentalist Arooj Aftab became the first Pakistani artist to win a GRAMMY for her album "Vulture Prince." Her new album is a joint project with composer and pianist Vijay Iyer and renowned multi-instrumentalist Shahzad Ismaily (bass, synthesizer). The reputation of the three musicians is considerable: Arooj Aftab now impresses audiences worldwide with her atmospheric, intelligent music, GRAMMY-nominated Vijay Iyer is one of today's most influential pianists, and Shahzad Ismaily's sensitivity and technical brilliance have made him a legend among artists such as Lou Reed, for whom he was a session musician.
