MILES and NODI from Bangladesh rock the Royal Alberta Museum Auditorium

On August 8, 2015 SHS Production invited music fans to experience popular music from Bangladesh live in Edmonton. The legendary Rock Fusion Band Miles and "Channel I Shera Kontho" winner Moumita Tashrin Nodi performed in the Royal Alberta Museum Auditorium. The show was anchored by Athar Ali Khan as a replacement for actor Zahid Hasan, who couldn't make it to Canada this time.

Miles

Miles is around and musically active since 1979, coming from Dhaka, Bangladesh. Today the group consists of 5 members, Hamin Ahmed (vocal and guitar), Shafin Ahmed (vocal and bass), Manam Ahmed (keyboards and vocal), Syed Ziaur Rahman Turjo (drums and percussion) and Iqbal Asif Jewel (guitar and vocal). Having recorded multiple albums, the band wrote a number of notable songs. Their music is described as a pop rock act with influences coming from Blues, Latin, Jazz and Techno music.
