Being the former manager of the band, it gives me immense pleasure to inform you dedicated readers (3 of you in all) that the album will be available online in a short while.
In the meanwhile if you are either in Mumbai or Delhi, and wish to attend their album launch in these respective cities AND pick up the album on discount, here is some information that might help you out.
Mumbai launch: Thursday January 8th 2009 at 2030 hours.
Venue: Bonobo, Linking Road, Bandra.
New Delhi launch: Saturday January 10th at 2030 hours.
Venue: Q Bar, Connaught Circus, Connaught Place.
At the time of writing this post, the Bangalore and Pune launches had already taken place, but hopefully some of you who read this might’ve attended the same.
The launch of Swarathma’s self-titled debut album is a result of their having won the Radio City Live competition and consequently having secured a record label deal in February 2008.
The band is yet to update its website following the album launch, and that is quite understandable since they’re busy as hell touring the country right now. From the site, you will be able to gather more details on how to lay your hands on the CD.
In other news, I intend to do a feature and an album review for Rock Street Journal, so watch out for that as well.
Oh, and if the message hasn’t yet been clear, please go ahead and buy the album. It is worth every paisa of the INR 195 that you would shell out for it.
Plus the fact that these guys are still completely down-to-earth and have no pretentious airs about them despite all their success will ensure that you can get your copy of the album autographed without any trouble.
The work and presentation – Rocks and the mates are grounded.
A recipe thats gonna take them places.
Wishing them best luck.
They are heading to Del today….
