Over the course of the past few months, working with RDB & Nindy Kaur has been a dream come true – as it would be for any publicist. Not only are they one of the most internationally accepted and known artists, but also they are four of the most amazing people you would ever have the opportunity to meet. I never thought that what once started off as a fluke interview with Manj of RDB would lead to entering the official RDB circle. But with patience & hard work, I learned that good things are bound to happen. But enough of that – let’s get into the meat of this story! So on Friday, April 24th, 2009, RDB’s very own Manj & Nindy Kaur, along with Jess Tooray of Dholnation, came to New Jersey for their pre-album launch party & concert! Two albums are expected to release this summer. The first and most anticipated is RDB’s album titled “Worldwide,” followed by Nindy Kaur’s self-titled debut album.
But back to this event – and may you note, it was NOTHING less than spectacular! The crowd was pumped by the time 11 PM was rolling around and they were eagerly awaiting the arrival of RDB & Nindy Kaur. Before the crowd knew it, RDB & Nindy Kaur arrived at the venue pumped and ready to perform! As you know, no RDB concert is complete without one of their most popular and internationally known songs as the opening track – “Singh is Kinng”!
Indy Sagu has been working on the Bhangra scene for nearly nine years. His album The Debut, launched his career in spectacular form (2001). In 2004, he released his second album, Indystructable, furthering him as a household name in the U.K. and abroad. Despite having established himself as a producer, this time around he is hoping to break the mould and this album could well be the gateway to that haven. 2008 bought Indy his third installment to the Bhangra industry; the album titled Reincarnated released worldwide through iTunes, and again showcases his talent as a music producer, as well as, his ability to fuse music from East & West with his own twist. This has bought much interest from around the globe furthering his grip in this music market.
DJ-ing & producing remixes since the age of 17, this young man has been influenced by personal experiences, like all good artists. He bought his first set of turntables before age 16; his influences vast and closer to home than one would imagine. At an early age, Sagu learnt to play the dholki and tabla from his father. Now owning his own professional music studio, as well as, record company (www.lioncorerecords.com), he’s established a firm foothold in this ever changing music industry.
Since picking up his award for BBC Best Newcomer 2003, Sagu has concentrated on the production of sound and has spent time learning percussion with the view to bring new sounds and flavors for everyone. Recently Indy Sagu was down in New Jersey for a ‘wicked’ (as they would say in the U.K.) performance with RDB so yo know I had to snag my interview right away!
