Glimpse of Teertho and his Musical Soul

Music is an everyday part of our lives. And what would fill our silences if not for the musicians
around us? Raahim Rubaiyat Teertho (senior, CS) is just like that; an aspiring musician
whose growing presence in the music scene catches our eyes.

Starting his journey with vocal lessons from a young age, Teertho’s passion has been a
trajectory. Starting a band with his friends, ‘A-Kid’, has not been an easy journey either. But his
firm belief remains that whatever he has achieved till now, a big thanks goes to his family, who
has never stopped him from pursuing his dreams. And, of course, what would life be without
supportive friends around us? Though now mainly focused on covers such as Radiohead, his
band plans to launch a song soon by the end of this year. Jumping between genres and not
submitting to a norm is mainly what he feels his songs focus on. But despite this, he does feel
welcomed by his contemporaries and believes that through mutual understanding and
accommodations (as well as talented producers), one can reach new heights in the ever-changing
Bangladeshi music scene. Working in a group has its limitations, but Teertho and his band

manage it with constant communication and compromise.

Balancing studies along with his music has not been an easy road. But his passion has fuelled his
drive on this road. After all, the heart wants what it wants. And he wants music!
