Nescafe Basement — a success

LAHORE: I would like to congratulate the whole team of Nescafe Basement for providing a platform to all new artists who are immensely talented and wanted to share their gift with audiences around the world.

Nescafe Basement has provided an opportunity to all those upcoming musicians who would, otherwise, never get a chance to perform on such a substantial scale. It was heartening to discover that the team of Nescafe Basement has searched for talent in schools and universities that can make Pakistan proud.

After Coke Studio, Nescafe Basement is another music session that is helping musicians refine their skills and restore our old songs, making them all the more appealing to our youth — this, in turn, helps enliven our culture.

The show has achieved a massive popularity as renowned Pakistani musician Xulfi is mentoring the young upcoming musicians and people have great expectations from the forthcoming Nescafe Basement Season 4 — we are hoping it will be more successful than all its previous sessions.
