What if we were to tell you that there would be a gentleman from the quaint hilly town of Dehradun called Bal Kishore Das Loiwal who would perform songs from the Wild West? Yes, we see that raised eyebrow, but truth, as they say is stranger than fiction. Growing up in the Himalayan Foothills, all Babu (as he was called then) can remember listening to is country music that played at home, off records his aunt would send from abroad.Picking up a guitar to go with his great voice Bobby would play at clubs in New Delhi, the only one who would play his kind of music when a chance meeting with an Australian TV producer in 2002 changed his life forever. In 2003, Bobby travelled to the Tamworth Country Music festival, the only Indian performer in the line-up. As fate often wills, things fell into place and Bobby shot and released an ABC TV documentary called 'The Indian Cowboy: One in a Billion'. Bobby has since gone on to play at the CMA Music Festival in Nashville, USA and at various venues in Australia. Now this is one performer you must watch: An Indian Cowboy, at home in the world.
