Quratulain Balouch, reknowned as "QB" is a flourishing Pakistani singer. She has earned a bachelors degree in IT essentials Multimedia from George Mason University Washington DC. Even though she has had no classical training and does not belong to a musical background, QB has some very strong vocals. She is heavily inspired by Sufi musicians such as Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Reshma and Abida Parveen. She is an American citizen but she was raised in Pakistan. She was born in Iran with a Persian paternal background and a Pakistani maternal background. She came back to Pakistan last year from USA with a mission to make her mark in Pakistan's music industry. After covering tracks like "Akhiyan Nu Rehn de" and "Maaye Ni Main Kinu" she has risen to fame by singing the title song for drama serial "Humsafar" which had over 8.5 million views on youtube in just 6 months (Sept 18.2011-March 17.2011). She was part of Coke studio season 4, where she collaborated with Jal band for the song “Teray Ishq Main Jo Bhi Doob Gaya”. She has also collaborated with singers like Khawar Jawad, Saad sultan, Bilal Khan and Shajar Fakhar. She currently did some new songs like "Nach Baliye" from Urdu Feature Film Rangeen, "Lal o Gauhar" title song of a talk show by a renowned NGO Aurat Foundation, "Dhamak" soundtrack from drama series "Dhamak" on A Plus and “Behkawa” another OST from a drama series on Geo Tv. Sufi Folk is not her only forte but her passion. Qb can do equally good covers of tracks by Adele
