UMER PIRACHA, originally from Multan, Pakistan, began his vocal practice at age 4 with spiritual chant-recitation, a sacred oral tradition that continues to shape his approach to Sufi vocal aesthetics. His training today is guided by practitioners from a 700-year lineage of Qawwali, a South Asian devotional musical tradition. Based in New York City, Umer has performed at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, and his arrangements of fourteenth-century Sufi music have been featured on NPR. His work transcends cultural boundaries, blending mysticism with contemporary elements to create performances that inspire meditation, conversation, and communal healing. Follow him on Instagram at @UmerPiracha and @falsamusic.
