Coke Studio on Saturday released four songs from episode 2 of season seven on its website and social media accounts.

Three new yet familiar faces of Zohaib Hasan, Jawed Bashir and Humera Channa have been included in the second episode.

Chehra:

Singer Zoheb Hasan, brother of Nazia Hasan is now on board with the all time favourite Chehra from the brother-sister duo's album Young Tarang.

With Amir Zaki on the guitar, Sajid Ali played the flute to produce the melodious tunes of the song.

Phool Banro:

The musical harmony between the first timer Humera Channa with Abbas Ali Khan in Phool Banro is palpable.

While Sajid Ali plays the flute, Arsalan Rabbani is on the xylophone and Fuzon's Shallum Xavier on the acoustic rhythm to create a soothing sound effect.

Charkha:

Former vocalist of the Meekal Hasan Band, Jawed Bashir did justice to the Punjabi number, with its catchy chorus and the rabab blend by Tanveer Tafu.

Washmallay:

The Danay pe Dana duo — Komal Rizvi and Akhtar Chennal — is back along with Momin Durrani for the famous Pashto song Washmallay.

Syed Adeel Ali on Rhythm guitar and Tanveer tafu were the guest musicians for the song.

Fans react on Twitter as episode 2 of season seven goes live:
