Aamir Zaki Biography
Aamir Zaki (April 8, 1968 – June 2, 2017) was a Saudi born Pakistani guitarist-songwriter and composer. Zaki is considered by many as one of the most influential guitarists in Pakistan’s history. He is considered to be among the pioneers of Rock music in Pakistan.
Zaki started out his music career with a band named “The Scratch” in 1987, their first album was named “The Bomb”, whose title track was about the Empress Market bomb blast. The song gave Zaki a little recognition. On an advice from his friend, he quit The Scratch in 1988 to form his own band, thus in process of doing so he started touring with Alamgir.
In late 1990, music scene in Pakistan began to recede, although by the time, Zaki had a cult-following. Zaki then used to perform live songs of his original English and Urdu songs, before they were released, he started doings gigs at Karajazz Festival and Cafe Blue (Karachi, Pakistan).
In 1994, Zaki joined Vital Signs who at that time were already country’s largest pop act, Vital Signs had expelled their second guitarist Rizwan-ul-Haq, and Zaki joined in his place as Rohail Hyatt, the leader of the band wanted to expand their sound, and wanted something deeper and complex like “a mixture of vintage Eagles and Fleetwood Mac”. Zaki performed extensively with Vital Signs before quitting the band due to band’s existential crisis and not getting the equal profit of royalties. Zaki later toured with former bandmates Junaid Jamshed and Shahzad Hassan after Hyatt’s exit from the band.
After leaving Vital Signs, Zaki released “Signature” in 1995, an independent release, by his own money. The first batch of CDs was made in England, and Sonic released the album in Pakistan. The album was a hit, and one song “Mera Pyar” (Urdu for My Love) was a major hit, when asked about inspiration for the song, Zaki responded by saying,”someone who doesn’t exist and never will.”, referencing to his ex-wife. Zaki was awarded with Gold Disc for his debut album from Soundcraft UK. Zaki further released two more albums Rough Cut (2007) with Hadiqa Kiani on vocals and Radio Star (2007).
Zaki died on June 2, 2017 after suffering a heart attack. He was 49
