The Pashtones - Ro Ro Keda Qadamuna

Its not by Pashto singers, Its by American Boys.
Formed in July 2010, The PashTones are a collaboration of two American zadaka'onke (students) of Pashto language, who were then studying at the University of Wisconsin's South Asian Summer Language Institute.

Brian Tilley is a graduate student in Anthropology at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, U.S.A.
Ted Watter is a graduate student in History at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, U.S.A.

Pashtones adapt and perform Pashto folk songs in American folk/acoustic styles. In performing, we wish to expand current modes of engagement and exchange between Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the West by opening into the register of poetry and music.

Members =- Brian Tilley - Lead Vocals
Ted Watter - Vocals, Guitar, Harmonica, Percussion
Genre: Folk / Other

I am not Afghan but I love Afghan folk music. I've always wondered what the lyrics to this song meant. Thanks guys, I think you did a very nice job.
