This week on Artist Focus we travel to Pakistan to revisit a band that changed the musical landscape of the country forever. Junoon, a Pakistani band that gained international fame and sold over 30 million records worldwide, introduced the world to sufi rock. Join us and explore some of Junoon's most impactful tracks with us and how politics and poetry affected music in Pakistan in the 90s.
