Atif Aslam to Unite With Guns N’ Roses for “The Dreamer Awakes”

July 21, 2010

Earlier today we published some pictures of Atif Aslam and his gang along with former band members of Guns N’ Roses. Atif has shared more information about the upcoming project, one of the songs of which has already been recorded earlier today.

The project seems like a multi-song project by the name “The Dreamer Awakes” by Lanny Cordola. The line up includes couple of former GnR members with Matt Sorum on the drums and Gilby Clarke on the guitars while Slash will be on board too.

“Collaborating with the band is a success for the whole music industry in Pakistan,” he said. During the press conference the singer said, “As per the contract with the American band, I will be able to represent Pakistani culture in this album. It will clear many misunderstandings about Pakistan.”

“Americans want to know about Pakistani art and culture,” he said. “This effort is initiated to bring the two nations closer.”

“My project will also benefit other singers. I will try to introduce them on an international level through this album,” he said.

That’s all Atif has shared for now with the fans and he promises to share more information on this project soon.
