His name is Arif Lohar. His second name lohar means iron monger. He has been there for past 40 years. He is a famous pakistani folk singer. His father also used to sing folk songs with that metal instrument in his hand...its called a chimta basically large tongs. But this performance you can say was equivalent to some death metal songs on the west. His style of singing and appearance is signature look only he can pull off...I remember back in the days he used to wear 500g 22K gold necklaces.
Arif Lohar takes up his Father Alam Lohar' Legacy. They are Singers having a great traditional chracter to their voices and with the simple instruments they're amazing storytellers!
5:03 The lead vocalist is a blacksmith by caste. His name "Arif Lohaar" literally means "Arif the blacksmith". The instrument he is using is an old smithing tool used to move bits of red-hot iron in and out of the forge, called a "chimta". Its usage was originally popularized by the singer's late father, the legendary "Allam Lohaar". And yes, musically speaking, you could call it a precussion instrument, which kinda sounds like a muted cymbal.
Haha @ the Pink Floyd reference! Fun fact: Rohail Hyatt, the mastermind behind this studio was part of Pakistan’s AND South Asia’s great pop-rock band in the 80s-90s till early 2000s, called ‘Vital Signs’, and the band members were influenced by Pink Floyd, among others.
You usually see travelling pairs of singers that roam all over pakistan that utilize a drum and those metal tongs that carry over a cultural legacy from generations.
the instrument is a chimta . . . its used to flip bread/roti in the clay oven (primary use), bored people in the village make music out of it, pretty popular in punjabi folk
Thank you for reacting to Mirza Sahibaan, one of my all time favourites. It still reminds me of Hey Boy Hey Girl by the Chemical Brothers every time I hear it. Great performances from everybody
Hello John. I had mentioned Arif Lohar's jugni song for you to see this very instrument. His father used it and he does now. It is called a chimta and has little cymbals like in a tambourine attached to it. He is singing a very old folk lore of the love between Mirza and Sahiban (N is nasal and silent) his lady love. Arif Lohar s a folk singer from Punjab province (whereas pun is like the English pun) and is singing in Punjabi language.
Mirza Sahiban is the same as Romeo and Juliet... means the story is not the same, but it's a kind of folk lore. the singer's father was also a famous Punjabi singer and this style of singing is more like storytelling so the singer is actually telling you the story of mirza sahiban. in old days such singers use to tell the stories in form of a song using this instrument called chimta and flute, a typical Pakistani Punjabi instrument. when it comes to headbanging and long hairs we see it coming from rock but this singer and his father were the ones who started headbanging and long hair in this style of singing in Pakistan Punjab.
The instrument is called 'chimta'. It's the longer version of what is usually used for picking bread in a kitchen and is used in punjabi folk music to produce a rhythmic sound by striking it's blades with each other
Arif Lohar is a legend, son of another legend Alam Lohar. They sing the traditional folk poetry of the Punjab region of India and Pakistan. The Punjabi music is very upbeat and often equated to Jazz, Rock and Roll from the west. The head shake at the end is their family's signature move. Also the instrument they hold is a part of their identity. The people of Punjab, esepeacilly those referred to in this song are rural, mostly farmers, and very energetic, upbeat in nature. The folk song he sings here are two tales lovers being separated, kinda like Romeo Juliet. At the end I guess he expressed the agony of the lovers through his voice.
What an epic live performance by Rush for their sing Xanadu, absolutely loved it, thanks for sharing it with us. Regarding CS performance im also first time hearing to this performance of Coke Studio and probably enjoyed it more cz of ur n ur cute Cat reaction lol..Arif Lohar is a strange character, it was hilarious thou at the end. Btw i absolutely love Pink Floyd like everyone (who dont like them?) even thou Arif is not the kind of singer who will try to adopt or ever would have listened to them (he is not a modern singer at all) but Rohail Hayat producer of CS and former band Vital signs (probably best Pop-Rock band of Pakistan) were influenced by them.
This is folk Music, Arif Lohar the singer is playing "CHIMTA" . Yes this is a kind of Hand Clap instrument, his Father late Alam Lohar introduced this instrument. a folk lore is being told in this track.

If you want similar energy with organized chaos, give a listen to ‘Garaj Baras’ (I think it was from season 1)
