Preserving the Sounds and Voices of Afghanistan
This is a space to explore the stories, struggles, and resilience behind Afghan music and culture. Here, the aim is to share reflections, personal accounts, and insights into how Afghanistan’s musical heritage has been shaped, silenced, and reimagined in the face of change.
From the impact of the Taliban’s ban on music to the voices of artists keeping traditions alive in exile, each post aims to document history while inspiring dialogue about the future of Afghan culture.
The word echoes carries both memory and resilience. It reflects sounds that may fade but never fully disappear — just as Afghanistan’s music, though silenced by bans and displacement, continues to resonate across borders and generations.
This is more than storytelling — it’s a living archive, a reminder that even when silenced, the echoes can be heard from around the world.
