Maldivian guitar virtuoso Fasy will be launching his new album at the Backyard Pub & Grill, Sri Hartamas on Friday, July 22nd.

Entitled “Fasy: A Compilation”, the album comprises 13 tracks showcasing Fasy’s guitaring talent, stretching back to compositions from the early 90s. It will also feature, for the first time, Fasy’s vocal ability and his new band Playin December.

The compilation includes eight songs from Fasy’s earlier album Cruising, completely re-mastered by M. Faisal Ghazali at Pro DG Projects, as well as five bonus tracks.

“We are very proud to host the launching of Fasy’s new album,” said Jerry Chong, Backyard Pub & Grill owner. “Fasy is a true discovery and an incredible talent and deserves more exposure. He and Viji were a mainstay at the Backyard every Thursday and many of our patrons said they were blown away by his fluid fretwork,” he said.

Fasy will perform songs from album along with his band Playin December after the press conference at 8pm, July 22nd, 2005.
