Umer Piracha (@umerpiracha) is a Sufi vocalist and sound artist whose work invites deep spiritual presence and emotional resonance. Raised in the Sufi city of Multan, Pakistan, and mentored within a 700-year Qawwali lineage, Umer blends South Asian devotional traditions with contemporary sonic and contemplative practices.
Now based in New York City, he has performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Grace Cathedral, and been featured on NPR. His project Resonance of Grace creates immersive soundbaths rooted in sacred music, and his collaborations with Harvard Divinity School explore the role of sound in spiritual healing. He also leads Falsa (@falsamusic), a transcultural collective bridging World, Jazz, Sufi aesthetics, and global improvisation.
