Nimra Rafiq
On this season of Coke Studio, Nimra Rafiq makes her journey from backing vocalist to a featuring artist. Her soprano voice is all set to soar on the platform’s mainstage in a piece that highlights the skill of her musical ability. Nimra first entered the music scene with a televised music competition at the young age of fourteen. Despite being eliminated before the competition’s final round, Nimra showed a spark of determination and continued to pursue singing. She eventually performed a tribute to Alamgir on national television, which marked her first solo performance. Through many struggles and hurdles, characteristic of the uncertainties that come with being a young musician in Pakistan, Nimra persevered and thrived. By the time she turned eighteen, she was already performing as a solo live act, while working as a dubbing artist for Turkish drama serials for various channels.
Nimra’s musical journey reached new heights when she joined the musical group Sounds of Kolachi as a vocalist in 2015, and received recognition for her vocal range. Soon after, Nimra joined Coke Studio’s family in Season 9 as a backing vocalist.
