Amrit Gurung-nepathya

**Amrit Gurung & Nepathya**

Amrit Gurung is the charismatic frontman and founding member of Nepathya, one of Nepal's most beloved folk-rock bands. Formed in the 1990s, Nepathya became famous for blending traditional Nepali folk melodies with modern rock instrumentation, creating a sound that’s both rootsy and contemporary. Amrit’s soulful vocals and socially conscious lyrics—often tackling themes like environmental conservation, cultural identity, and everyday struggles—have made the band a cultural icon.

Recent tracks like *Ban Chari Udyo* (featured in the film *Dokh*) and *Resham* showcase Nepathya’s signature mix of uplifting rhythms and meaningful storytelling. Over three decades, they’ve released hits like *3 Minpachas* and evolved into a bridge between generations, preserving folk traditions while staying relevant to younger audiences. Whether performing at intimate venues or massive festivals, Amrit and Nepathya remain synonymous with Nepal’s vibrant musical heartbeat.
