Five Little Indians @ Tollygunge Club

I managed to catch Five Little Indians in concert at The Tollygunge Club on Saturday evening. The band popularly called “FLI” was formed in January 2007 with former members of some well-known “Kolkata” based bands both English and Bengali.

FLI, though it has been around for a while has of late made in roads into the Kolkata music scene with its original English music peppered with Hindustani Classical vocals. The band is all about English Original music which sets it apart from most Kolkata English bands that survive on doing covers.

As an original music band, FLI might not have many takers in the English music scene who have been fed covers, but their growing following and recent gigs are creating an audience that has been starved for this kind of music.
