Archie Himons landed in Nashville during the late 1970s; now known as "Aashid," he formed Afrikan Dreamland with Darrell Rose and Mustafa Abdul Aleem. The trio would quickly become one of the Music City's most popular bands, Afrikan Dreamland helping kickstart an original local music scene that had little to do with the city's country music tradition.
They broke up in 1987
