Goher Mumtaz (Urdu: گوہر ممتاز ) is a Pakistani musician, singer, composer, guitarist and actor. He famous for being the founding member of rock band Jal.[1]

Early life

Goher was born in Lahore. As a child, Goher practiced music on a keyboard he got as a gift. At 16, he sold his bike to buy his first guitar which he hid under his bed due to parent's restrictions.[1]

After his high school exams, Goher suffered an accident and was confined to bed for six months. This gave him time and space to grasp every note in the music that he listened to. With no formal training, Goher taught himself composition, song writing and singing. Later, he won in many college-level music competitions and gained momentum by performing at local restaurants in Lahore.[1]
