Details and songs

[edit]

TAG featured the first female tabla player of Pakistan (Sumera Waris)[2] as well as the first Pakistani female drummer (Mishal Faheem).[citation needed]

The band acquired massive fame by making a cover song of the John Newman’s original Love Me Again in the fourth season of Nescafe Basement.[5]

Besides the band's appearances in Nescafe Basement, they have mashed up John Newman's Love Me Again with the Game of Thrones title track. Another great mash-up by the talented girls is 'Are You With Me' by 'Lost Frequencies' with 'Laree Chotee'[6] by the Pakistani rock band ‘Call’.[citation needed]
