Kominas post-UK celebration with Pakistan’s Finest in NYC this Thursday night
In fine Kominas’ style, we barely caught our flight home. Can’t say we would have been too upset had we been stranded a few more days, however it feels nice to finally be back in NYC before we even had time to recover from the Latitude Festival. Our main show was mindblowing, an incredible moment that has forever solidified our determination to go as far as we can in music…There will be some live videos up soon as well as our session for BBC Asian Network at Maida Vale Studios (we recorded in MV4, notable for the Peel Sessions).
I must say it is astonishing to be in the presence of these Pakistani musicians that I grew up admiring, and to share a bill with them is something that I never thought would be possible for this band. There is a similarity in all of our characters, in our desires to play music without limitations and boundaries, and most notably, in our varied struggles to get to where we are today. It’s going to be a last minute, guerilla-style gig that has literally been thrown together less than 12 hours ago, and will hopefully bring us a new audience.

Yeah Meekal Hassan just sent my girlfriend series of two line chats “I’m in Toronto, we should meet up” constantly, verrry interested in smashing his face with a steely pan.
We’re going to give these over grown londas an American education on Thursday. We really should be charging their parents, to consider it a part of their basic highschooling that got put off for 15, 20 years.
