Event Description : 7th South Asian Bands Festival 2013.
The three-day music festival will feature fourteen popular rock bands from across nine nations of the sub-continent. The key feature this year, however, is the participation of Korea, which is the observer country to SAARC. Another highlight is a students’ band “What’s In The Name” who were the winners of the rock bands competition at IIT Mumbai. LRB from Bangladesh is another band to watch out for as their leader Ayub Bachchu is considered to be one of the pioneers of rock music in Bangladesh. Then there is the ever-popular Strings from Pakistan and Raghu Dixit Project from India too.
The participating bands are Barefaced Liar (New Delhi), LRB (Bangladesh), ZnG (Bhutan), Circus (New Delhi), Biuret (Korea), Stigmata (Sri Lanka), Eman’s Conspiracy (Maldives), Papon And The East Indian Company (Mumbai), Strings (Pakistan), What’s In The Name (Mumbai), Pardis (Afghanistan), Susmit Sen Chronicles (New Delhi), Albatross (Nepal) and The Raghu Dixit Project (Bengaluru).
Says Seema Dahiya, Project Manager, SABF 2013: “Started in 2007, the South Asian Bands Festival has become one of Delhi’s most eagerly awaited cultural extravaganzas and year after year people of all ages look forward to the best bands from the South Asian region to be showcased at the festival. Coming together of some of the most talented musicians on one platform at the magnificent Purana Qila is the best and truest representation of SAARC regional integration through Culture. The highlight of the 7th edition of SABF is the Guest country band “BIURET” from Korea which is one of the observer countries to SAARC.”
