East meets West
 
Salman Ahmad was the founder and guitarist in the band, “Junoon”. That word means “passion” and best describes the driving force behind his music. He has written a book about growing up in Pakistan, coming to America, and forging the Muslim world with the western world through rock ‘n roll. His message is timely and it reminds me of the simple message John Lennon shared so long ago: “All we are saying, is give peace a chance”.
 
I’m proud to have met and worked with Salman on an album project with Melissa Etheridge (“A New Thought For Christmas”) and have been working with him, mixing his solo album. Follow this link to learn more: YouTube.
