Nadir embodies the idea of celebrating our differences and revering our roots, embracing the colourful ups and downs of our past while bravely exploring the unwritten future to create a meaningful now, worthy of a lasting legacy. By fusing sounds that represent our different worldly experiences, culture, and the spirit of collaboration, the band moulds what is uniquely, Malaysian music with limitless sonic and cultural boundaries. Where carnatic vocals duel with rock riffs, where sitar melodies permeate through explosive percussion and tabla cadences, where tin whistles sing with saxophone melodies, the music is most definitely not what many would expect.
This 8-piece band operates as a family with fluid lineup of regular featured musicians playing a wide variety of instruments such as sitar, violin, gambus, bagpipes, erhu, yangqin and many more.
