In conversation with Susheela Raman

2011-11-23T09:03:00.000-08:00

Yes, I am indeed super honoured to be doing an interview with this amazing woman! Susheela Raman is indeed a soft breeze who can contradict her empowering vocal tone with her extremely calm , composed posture. Her music speaks for herself and she is incomplete without her husband, Sam Mills, who is also her music producer and a guitarist. Watch her singing Muthukumaranadi amma live, and you'll be spiritually driven from deep inside. I got to do a little musical chat with her while she was in Trivandrum to perform for the Kovalam Literary Festival. This also happens to be my finale piece with Rosebowl channel.

Outcast Vocals

2010-02-05T17:14:00.000-08:00

I had thought of jamming some random/popular/rare songs with a bunch of young creative musicians for Rosebowl channel!! I hooked in Suchith and Sidharth who are from the popular band 'Udaan' and an excellent Jazz pianist, Vineet. Bass guitarist of 'Avial', Benny accompanied the team on his guitar and he really must have hated us!!... cos we sort of kept him up all night during the final practice session :) Nevertheless, things went awesome and it took me a while to get the videos and upload them... *TAN TA DAAAAAAN*

Also coming up with name for the show was a huge fun process. We initially came up with Coconut Machans, tuner wardrobe, kappa 'n meen curry, etc.. but finally after the shoot was done, we realized that it didn't turn out to be that funky and was more of classy and suttle numbers, hence the name, 'Outcast Vocals'

This track is Parayan maranna paribhavangal by Pt. Ramesh Narayan and lyrics by Rafeeq sir. Vineet George Panikker has done the backing of this unplugged version.

This one is a very popular ghazal of Hariharanji , Jhoom Le. Backed by Vineet and Benny chettan.

This one is a collage of my two very favourite songs: Ishq ada hai and Thamara noolinal. It was just an attempt !!
