Biography

SHOHORTOLI started its journey at a lean lane of Mirpur in between 2004 / 05 (approximately). The journey was initiated by three individuals, namely; Mishu, Biddut, Galib. At that time it had no name. Then Sunny & Tapan came and made this setup a full-fledged one; and finally it became SHOHORTOLI. The title of the band was suggested by Mishu. Basically, the true bonding of friendship & brotherhood brought together these five individuals holding this setup; until lately; the band has three members now leaving behind the two of its old buddies (Galib & Biddut).

Description
The word "SHOHORTOLI" means suburb in English. The name of the band is "SHOHORTOLI", Just Because all of the members of this band are from a sub-urban area named "Mirpur", which is situated at the northern part of Dhaka City. All the believes that we hold, all the values that we practice and all the air that we breathe are from this are--Mirpur. 
 
Band Interests
While most of the other bands would like to work on personal emotions; “Shohortoli” takes strong notes from our liberation war, contemporary lifestyle, urban chaos, inequality, corruptions and compose their songs thereby.
