LINE UP FOR DAY TWO:

BLOODY CRACKERS
5 years ago, Red Bull & Opus kick started a youth-driven live music concept on Monday nights, called Bulls Unplugged, which meant every week, we’d have the city’s coolest “college bands” take stage (some, for the first time ever) at Opus and belt out Classic Rock covers, “own comps” and the like! Some for the first time ever even!
It was for, and by the college “kids” in town. We’re bringing back some of those amazing college bands (now in a grown up avatar) in an epic Reunion, for one night only – combining players from “Polly Wants A Cracker”, “Chutney Mary Assassins”, “Bleed” and many more!! We give you BLOODY CRACKERS!

SKRAT
In the later part of the day on July 15th of the year 2006 a bunch of high school graduates decided that they would form a band and make some music to aid their would-be dreary college lives. 6 days later they played their first show at the Unwind center. In an environment of predominantly metal music, this original-rock act got the crowd and went on to play over 100 gigs, and counting. This includes most of the major cities in South India, Mumbai and an independent festival in Reading, England.
After a shortl hiatus to explore their sound following the release of their first studio album called ‘Design’, the band has reformed with a new sound and a new direction.

ONE NITE STAND
One Nite Stand is India’s newest Pop/Rock sensation, famous for their unique high-octane “Dance-Rock” music. Known for their lively and energetic performances, this is a band, now recognized as one of India’s most touted young bands. After performing and headlining at several music festivals, colleges and leading concert venues across the country, the band now plans to release their debut album in Summer 2014 under Universal Music Group. With a growing number of fans, especially the ladies and girls from colleges from across the country, the band never fails to surprise an audience and ensures that they stay hooked right through the show!
