About Me:
 
Thanks for visiting my YT site ! It was initially created just to try my hand at creating some videos and recording my own vocals with tracks to share with my friends and family around the world....Feel free to fwd it ...the more views I get the better :))

CONTACT ME FOR ANY MUSIC RELATED WORK !!!! Concerts , Recordings !!! I would be interested to help !! ( for your next Bollywood movie playback or Music Video ;)))))

If you look at my 'Favorite' videos they are basically some of the musicians I adored and was "influenced by" while growing up...( not specifcally the songs or videos listed - but the singers and musicians)

The other main influence - My father was disciple of Pt Jnan Ghosh a renowned music teacher and I used to just listen to him practice classical music every evening! My sisters also learnt and were versatile in different forms of Hindustani music and while boys were generally not encouraged to learn music (in those days ! :)) - I learnt while listening to them !

I have been a student of Indian Classical music learnt for short intermittent periods from a few of the local musicians while living here in the SanFrancisco Bay Area.
Currently for the last couple of years learning from Shubhangi Sakhalkar reputed teacher of Hindustani music in the BayArea.
The songs I have recorded ( or plan to) are in the languages that I am fluent with ie
Hindi , Bangla and English.

I was born and raised in Central part of India , MadhyaPradesh, amongst authentic Hindi speaking people !
My parents are Bengali and that is my mother-tongue.
Then ofcourse English - my first language at school and the language of land I have adopted to live in ie the USA :) !!

Was part of couple of different Live Bands for some time , did quite a few live shows with live musicians , but since most were working fulltime in other professions the bands disbanded. Most of my recordings here are Home Recordings with a Laptop computer and a simple mixer and a nice enough microphone.

I would appreciate your comments either to specific songs or add yr comment to the channel itself !

Wish you peace and love !!! God Bless You !

Excellent voice. I am a huge fan. Your ghazal, Pyar bhare naine is amazing. If only we could meet some how.. I would sit for hours and learn about your life, listen to music and be your top fan.
God Bless.

Wow. Your soothing voice in that Jagjit Sinsh ghazal "Hosh Walo Ko..." is just beyond words. Neel. Once again, your voice, & the way you sing, touched my soul. One can sit back comfy, put some great headphones on & just listen to you sing, no matter the language, no matter the genre, to just "feel" the beauty, the depth, the* soul* in your voice "within". Touching, mesmerizing, to say the least. Would absolutely LOVE to listen to you sing and upload a Bengali song again, Neel. Would SO appreciate, if you'd kindly send it in to share so I know not to miss. Some vintage Bangla GEM, be it Nazrul, Tagore, Hemant, or a Vintage Uttam Kumar romantic film song. Your soothing magical voice will bring new life to it, & countless like me, would be so humbly thankful, for it. Neel. God Bles You! :) Warm regards, Ritu. SF Bay Area,USA. Oct. 2, 2010.
