Smoking Chutney at The Sofala, Goa

Share

Goa’s latin-jazz-funk-blues band Smoking Chutney has rocked the Sofala’s Thursday Night Live event for over two years now. Thursday Night Live has grown into India’s most happening mid-week night out. World renowned international acts have become a regular feature raising the band’s performance bar every week.

Here’s a radio jingle that says it all: https://soundcloud.com/jazzgoa/thursday-night-live

And here’s a video that shows it all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfAN11LidaM

THE ACOUSTIC ROAD and Veda Aggarwal at Baywatch Resort, Goa

Share

Veda has traveled over land and sea to learn the secrets of the nylon-stringed Spanish guitar. Now armed with infinite knowledge of the instrument very few have mastered and fingers that can strum like no other she will summon the powerful motifs of flamenco, make you dance the tango, with references to the masters like Bach she’ll make you laugh and sigh but mostly have fun, all under romantic starry skies.

Her last collaborative work was adapting arias from Mozart’s Don Giovianni for classical guitar, in a unique online partnership with the American soprano Samantha Chardin. One of five national finalists for the Spanish Guitar Competition in 2009, Veda has received special training from classical guitarists Roger Zimmerman and GFA 2010 winner Johannes Moller.

She has recently taken up a major project through which she intends to document the story of classical guitar in India.

The Acoustic Road performs stripped down, acoustic versions of some classic alternative, folk, country and rock anthems.Every song has it’s own T.A.R stamp on it.

Their influences:

Guns N’ Roses, Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers, Simon & Garfunkel, The Eagles, John Mayer

Electric Pulse live at Baywatch Resort, Goa

Share

India’s most powerful, upcoming classic rock performance, hailing from Goa.Electric Pulse is that phenomenon/ hazard/rock band. The band’s original sound is a heady amalgam of powerful drumming, soaring twin lead guitar attack and steady baselines holding them together. Playing high energy set lists of classic rock reinterpreted with a distinctly heavy metal sensibility, in their own words; the band aims to “make every song of our set sound like the last song of a show”.
Electric Pulse takes listeners on a journey through a sound-scape of unrelenting hard rock, galloping riffs and melodic hooks.

LINE UP:

ANIRBAN HALDER – VOCALS & GUITAR
ASHYAR BALSARA – GUITAR & VOCALS
RICARDO CARASCO – BASS
JOHNATHAN DIAS – DRUMS
