Tanzir Tuhin, the long-standing but now-former vocal of popular rock band Shironamhin, has formed a new band titled Avash. The popular musician made the announcement through a Facebook post with members of his new band – Suman (guitar), Raju (bass), Rinku (drums) and Shaon (keys).

Talking to The Daily Star, Tuhin said “I have been away from music because of health issues, as per doctor's recommendation. When the doctor told me I can go back on stage, I found some friends and fellow musicians to start this new project.”

About the band's activities, the vocalist said “We are jamming together now, and also working on our material. Hopefully by January or February you can hear us.” Asked about his association with Shironamhin, a smiling Tuhin said “I am with Shironaamhin as a listener, just like you.”

Tuhin, who had been the vocal of Shironamhin since its inception, announced on October 6 that he was leaving the band, due to internal issues. The band has recruited a new vocal, and released a new song titled “Jadukor” with the new lineup on December 7.
