Profile
About Raf Saperra
Raf Saperra, born Adeel Sardar Khan in Streatham Hill, London, has family roots in Sargodha, Pakistan. He trained on dhol, tabla and harmonium as a child, and his music career took off during lockdown when he started posting traditional Punjabi folk covers online.
His breakthrough single "Modern Mirza" was filmed in Lahore's Walled City and gave an old folk story a fresh new look. His music fuses bhangra with UK garage, Afrobeats, qawwali, hip-hop and Hindustani classical, and he has worked with Sidhu Moose Wala, Sukshinder Shinda and US rappers including Ghostface Killah and Dave East. "Snake Charmer" and "Jhaleya" are other standouts.
Raf brings a powerful folk voice with a streetwise edge. He is perfect for couples who want something that feels both traditional and current, whether at a mehndi, sangeet or reception.
