Biyografi

Bhumiband is an independent Singaporean Malay band. Formed in 2003, the band consists of lead singers Ard and Awi Rafael, pianist and keyboardist Hang Dimas, drummer Zuher, lead guitarist Athif, bassist Kif, and percussionist Eddy. The band's lineup has remained static during its history, with the only exceptions of the departure of guitarist and co-songwriter Nazri, Ard and Kif in 2005. Hang Dimas would later join the band Hujan in 2008. Awi Rafael also has a successful solo career after Bhumiband. Irfan, Atiqah and Reamie both become official members in 2016. In 2005, Bhumiband achieved regional recognition with their first album Suara Dunia. The album was nominated for 5 awards, including 2 regional categories in the 2005 Anugerah Planet Muzik (APM), which is the local Malay music industry's awards show. The band's second album, Konspirasi Dunia was equally if not more successful in 2006. The song "Goda" from the album was featured in the original soundtrack of Malaysian action film, Remp-It. After touring together with Indonesian band Sheila on 7 and recording non-stop in the late 2006, the band went on hiatus following individual commitment and projects. In late 2016, the band returned with the single "Hanya Kamu". Bhumiband has been known to use pop and rock in their style of music which was predominant in their 2005 and 2006 albums but "Hanya Kamu" displayed the band's progression and evolution with a wider arrangement akin to its current form.
