Orange Street

The Band Orange Street’s distinctive sound is a combination of rock, Indian classical & traditional Dhol shot through an electronica bed. 1995’s "Great Indian Rock" project organized by the only music magazine "RSJ" at the time brought Orange Street to the attention of the audiences and the music community in India. By 2002 they won the Great Indian Rock competition and made sufficient noise about their presence.

This consolidated their reputation for ground breaking new sound and uplifting live sets. By this time, the band had already toured across India and Sri Lanka with two albums under their belt. "Drive Carefully for Our Shake" was released with RSJ records in 2000 and "Candywalk" was released nationally by Magnasound India Records in 2002. He strongly felt that people were also evolving in their own ways as times were changing. Thus getting together some very talented musicians, Orange Street evolved with a ground breaking sound which is the first of its kind in their country. The album "DHARMA" saw this outstanding collaboration of the new line-up with guitarist Donn, drummer Ashwin Andrew, bassist Dara, Hindustani classical singer Imran Khan and the Dhol player Parveen Sethi. The band played some major festivals like "Peace and Love", "Slottsfjell", "Sundance Music Fetsival" and "Little Chili" across Sweden, Norway, Estonia and UK. The concerts were a resounding success, Orange Street performing alongside top bands and artists like Motorhead, Trilok Gurtu, Timbuktu, Hanoi Rocks and Nizami Brothers.

Orange Street is now preparing for the new season of music festivals, film projects and release of the new album.
