Qayaas is Unadulterated Rock Music embracing Hope in the face of Anarchy

Eva Dowd started  representing Umair Jaswal and his band  Qayaas in 2011 and now represents Umair's Solo Career .

Qayaas was  the first progressive alternative rock band from Pakistan, a country where traditionally music has been looked down upon rather than being celebrated as an art form. This gave their music a sense of rebellion and a rallying cry for pathos. Qayaas with  Umair Jaswal  took Pakistan by storm to become the country's  #1 Rock  Band  while giving hope to youth that music can be created against  all odds despite hostile environment that shuns freedom of speech and Rock Music.
