Mili - An exceptional R & B Quartet August 6, 2009

Mili - An exceptional R & B Quartet. Mili, Hamesh, Sumith, Ramachandran & Keith Peters.Standing tall amidst the rich musical tradition that India offers, Mili Nair brings to the stage a style that is diverse as it is compelling and original. With an eclectic blend of Eastern and Western influences, she draws upon training in Classical music and a penchant for improvisational jazz. Earlier this year, she collaborated with Vinny Valentino at the Java Jazz Festival in Jakarta, Indonesia. If you thought that was all there was to say about this exceptional quartet, you're mistaken. Presenting on guitars, the inimitable Sumith Ramachandran: referred to by most who have seen him play as the 'most jaw-dropping' guitar player they have ever seen, Sumith's talent belies his unassuming appearance. On drums is Hamesh, whose list of co-performers reads like a who's who of the international music industry. And Keith Peters on bass – who needs no introduction to the Bangalore's music aficionado!
