About Arooj Aftab
Artist Biography
Singer, composer, and producer Arooj Aftab creates a captivating blend of neo-Sufi, classical minimalism, jazz, electronic music, and other disparate styles. After moving from her native Pakistan to New York in the late 2000s, she established herself as a stylistically adventurous performer and recording artist, laying down several solo albums and collaborating with a range of names from Esperanza Spalding and DJ /rupture to Latin star Residente. In 2022, she became the first-ever Pakistani artist to win a Grammy Award when the song "Mohabbat" from her acclaimed third album, Vulture Prince, took home the prize for Best Global Music Performance. After 2023's Love in Exile, a collaboration with Vijay Iyer and Shahzad Ismaily, she returned in 2024 with the mercurial concept album Night Reign.
