Speaking about their inspirations and upcoming plans, lead vocalist Daksh Kubba states “Inspiration comes from people. People inspire you: fans, friends, family, relationships. How they feel, and more importantly how they make YOU feel. You could feel amazing or you could feel worthless, but the ones that inspire you the most are the ones who believe in you. They believe in you even when you lose faith in yourself and it’s for THEM that we have our Debut Album Saptak coming out in May. Thank YOU, truly, for believing in me.”

naQsh has been creating socially relevant and soul-stirring music since 2007.Their eclectic sound comes from the band’s diverse background and experiences. The Vancouver-based band members originate from Pakistan and India. Their inspirations range from artists such as Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, to Pink Floyd, Led Zeplin, and U2. naQsh epitomizes the depth of their roots, communicated in moody rock and West Coast Canadian style. “Through our music we hope to touch hearts, inspire and create spaces for people to come together and be united in humility and love.” – Daksh
