Named after the legendary song by Howling Wolf – Smokestack started off as a pretty purist, acoustic blues trio. Not content to stay within that realm, the band soon broadened the approach, taking an interest in a multitude of folk and roots music as well as rhythmic influences from around the world. This led to expanding the band to include drums and electric guitars.

Now they take pride for playing blues in all their shades and styles, pegged on a dynamic, unfaltering groove, while channeling the raw, direct emotion of the earliest acoustic Blues!

A history lesson that you can dance to – And with a repertoire of over 50 original songs and the traditional blues covers, they can make you dance all night long!

Over the last five years – few venues that Smokestack has played at: Shisha Jazz Cafe (Pune), High Spirits Cafe (Pune), Swig – Bar & Eatery (Pune), Stone Water Grill (Pune), Arc Asia – ABC Farms (Pune), Curve – ABC Farms (Pune), NJJBTB (Not just Jazz by the Bay – Pune), St. Andrews Auditorium Bandra (Mumbai), Blue Frog (Mumbai), Zenzi Bandra (Mumbai) and many more

On stage they have had the great privilege to jam with Indian Classical Vocalists, Jazz guitar players, African drummers (and dancers), Western Classical Trumpet players!

Off the stage they’ve had the chance to work with Film makers and other Artists too!
