Papon (ANGARAAG MAHANTA) is
a multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer and one of the most powerful
new voices in India. While rooted in folk, Papon has a wide variety
of influences and is an extremely versatile artist and a composer.
Coming from a musically attuned family, Music has always been in his
blood. His inspirations came from the wide array of sound that he
has been exposed to - from the traditional Folk songs of Eastern India
to new-age electronica.
His initial training has been in Indian classical and traditional
music (devotional and folk) from Assam. His innovative experiments
are rich with ambient electronica, acoustic folk, electro ghazals,
new-age, Ind-classical sounds
In 2007, Papon formed his folk-fusion band "Papon and The East
India Company". The band has been performing at all prestigious
festivals and venues all across the globe.
Today Papon & The EIC is a much-appreciated band for LIVE performances
across all music festivals, public shows and college festivals in
India. |
