Most of you already know about this. And this is really exciting!!!!
Okke..so after everything said, done, played and recorded, tonight is the official launch of the British Council’s brainchild, “Soundpad” featuring 4 Indian bands at the top of their game with assistance from John Leckie and Dan Austin. Those who have seen the videos of behind the scenes recording, will know that these two British gentlemen have done what they are famous for…taking the bands’ talents and potentials and multiplying them to such a level that most of the times, bands are amazed themselves.
Those who dont know, here are the four bands who were selected:
Medusa (Bombay), Swarathma (Bangalore), Indigo Children (Delhi), Advaita (Delhi)
And for the videos of the studio sessions click here.
And those of you who will be in Mumbai tonight can catch them at Land’s End Amphitheatre, Bandra Bandstand, Next To Taj Lands End, Mumbai – 400050, from 6 pm onwards. Entry is free…so really, you are out of excuses.
