The four-member band is known for their electrifying live shows. Their music is highly influenced by Led Zeppelin, ACDC, Deep Purple, Iron Maiden and Guns &lsquo;n&rsquo; Roses. In mid-2010, their single, Yesteryears, was nominated and awarded a Silver Trophy, in the Suncane Skale festival, Montenegro, Europe. With a mixture of Power Ballads and Hard Rock/Classic Metal sound, they targetted fans striving to hear a sound that was closer to the 70s and 80s era, since there was hardly any band who would offer such a sound. The band is excited to perform in the city. Pradhan says, &ldquo;This is the first time that we will be visiting and performing in Pune. We have decided to play a lot of originals and some covers for the young audience. Some unreleased songs that we haven&rsquo;t played anywhere else will be presented in tomorrow&rsquo;s gig.&rdquo; Joshi recollects, &ldquo;When I was in college, we used to participate in a lot of college music festivals through which we happened to form a band together. All of us are fans of Rock music and we got along really well which helped us forge a stronger relationship. Guns &lsquo;n&rsquo; Roses, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith and Brian Adams inspire us.&rdquo; He adds that they have been performing together for the last 8-9 years and are now on the verge of coming out with their first album. &ldquo;We have worked hard on it and want every Hard Rock fan to listen to our music,&rdquo; he concludes. <h2 class="footer_style"> On October 10, 8.30 pm onwards At: The Hard Rock Caf&eacute;, Koregaon Park Extension.
