Shallum Xavier has been a staple musician for nearly a decade. It was his guitars and tunes that brought about Fuzon, combined with the singing prowess of Shafqat Amanat Ali and maestro composer Immu. The three of them took the music scene by storm and even though Shafqat might have left, they now have Rameez and are stronger than ever. But where does that leave Shallum's solo project? A project comprised of a collection of songs composed, co-written, and performed by Shallum along with other local--and even international--musicians. Have Immu and Rameez heard the album? "Yes, they have, " said Shallum. "And they're very supportive."
Shallum takes a moment to reflect on people's immediate reaction when he mentions he has a solo project. "People fail to realise that musicians don't limit themselves to one group or one project," he said. Commenting on the current atmosphere for musicians in Pakistan, Shallum said that it was very suffocating if they don't get to perform regularly. However, no matter how far he tries to go away from Fuzon, he might not be able to escape the band's shadow.
