Pick of the Day
The Srinjay Banerjee Trio
Monday, December 13, 2010 8 p.m. Someplace ElseThe Park, 17, Park Street, A not so straight-ahead trio that blends in sounds across space and time into a heady improvisatory concoction. Twisted guitar lines interweaving with sub-sonic frequencies which cannonball into kinky space-funk mysteriously morphing into spiritual excursions in meditative timbres and recreations of auditory hallucinations. The music covers a very diverse sonic territory stretching from roots in Bebop, Funk, Progressive Rock and Modern Classical music, crossed over with more contemporary elements of Electronica including live Drum n’ Bass and down-tempo Acid Jazz. The member are Shovon Mukherjee (Bass), Saurav Ryan Ghosh (Drums) and Srinjay Banerjee (Guitars).
