In an evocative Mahogany Session, Grammy-winning Pakistani-American singer, composer, and producer Arooj Aftab delivers a stirring performance of “Whiskey,” a track from her latest album, Night Reign.

The session, bathed in soft, ambient lighting, perfectly captures Aftab’s blend of jazz, folk, and classical influences, showcasing her ethereal vocals and deep emotional resonance. The song delves into themes of nocturnal intimacy and the complexities of looking after someone who has indulged too much.

With masterful vocal control and minimalist, evocative instrumentation, Aftab elevates the performance, creating a rich tapestry of sound that underscores the subtle intricacies of her lyrics and her profound musicality.

Night Reign, which follows Aftab’s critically acclaimed Vulture Prince, was released by Verve Records in May and continues her exploration of personal and intricate musical landscapes.
