Bangladeshi band music

Band music became popular in Bangladesh in the early 1960s, with the formation of Zinga Goshty in Chittagong. After the independence, many bands were formed. Souls, yet another band from Chittagong, was one of the first bands to gain nationwide popularity with their original lyrics. Although many other bands played in hotels, most of them focused on playing english songs. During the early 1980s, the scene began to change as more bands started writing their own lyrics and releasing Bangla song albums. Feedback, Miles and Renaissance were some of the most popular bands of the the 1980s and early 1990s.

In the 1990s, the band music scene truly came into its own with the emergence of more and more quality bands such LRB, Warfaze, Ark and Feelings.

Today, the scene is vibrant with new names such as Aurthohin , Artcell, Black, Bangla and others.
