Event Details : East India Company Band live.
East India Company (EIC) is a five-piece Delhi band that strikes a balance between traditional folk and electronic music. Together only since the summer of 2007, EIC explain that their improvisational sound epitomizes experimentation, freedom and traditional cultural experience. These musicians connect like they have always been together. The EIC's live shows reflect their flexibility and innovation as musicians through improvisational techniques, assimilating diverse sounds (like Rajasthani folk and naghadas) and a calm onstage rapport. Papon's vocals (he runs sync delays and filters through his laptop while singing) echo vivid valleys and flow like a mountain stream telling her tale to smooth bass lines and soaring yet strong guitar, punctuated with diverse improvised percussive beats - all given a  sublime rhythmic coherence and lush edge through Brin’s electronic rendering (Ableton live). Offering a rejuvenating concept rather than prescribed formula audio, each track is either entirely original (Fly with me, omo, jiya, Kyon hota hai pyaar), or a trademark rendering of known tunes (ranging from Bihu folk to Nusrat) - travelling beyond the traditional while immortalizing it.
