Naim Popal
Naim Popal is a singer, songwriter and composer born in Kabul on 18 June 1954, into a Popalzai family in the city's Demazang district. His career began at school, where he formed a band called Lalaha — The Tulips — which found an audience among young Kabulis and played concerts in Kabul, Mazar-i-Sharif and Jalalabad. He went solo by approaching Radio Kabul, and released his first single in the summer of 1972, the point from which he dates his professional career. He belongs to the generation that came up in the last years before the war, when Radio Kabul was still the route to a national audience and a single broadcast could make a singer's name. Like most of that generation he left Afghanistan, and spent roughly three decades in exile. He returned in 2006 to perform at a Nowruz concert — the first time he had sung in the country in thirty years.
