True
to their name, Avial (a Malayalam mixed-vegetable
delicacy) blending Malayalam poetry with contemporary
alternative rock music. With elements of indie
rock and folk music underlying an electronic
feel. Avial’s music has overcome language
barriers not only in India but is also drawing
fans across the sub-continent. It has an increasing
fan following, with a revolutionary approach
in today’s contemporary music scene in
India. In search of something more intrinsic,
with a sense of belonging, Avial discovered
and articulated the expression in their own
mother tongue, dared to express their music
with their self-titled debut album. Fetching
a great name for them selves, Avial is one of
the most sought after Indian bands today, transcending
genres, justifying the term “Alternative
Malayalam Rock”.
