Har Ik Zehr (meaning "Every Single Poison" in Urdu), is a New York City based three-piece Desi-American rock band whose music combines elements of classical Pakistani music and Western rock music with bilingual lyrics in Urdu and English.
The band promotes peace, tolerance, cultural exchange and diversity, and contributes a portion of their proceeds from shows to charities that support education, medical research and health, and poverty.
