Cheese
Genre : English Rock, Hindi Rock
Cheese, the band was formed way back in the year 1996 by Arjun (Guitars) and Samrat (Drums) with Jonathan (Keyboards) and Aditya (Vocals) joining in later. (Makes them kinda Jurassic doesn't it?)
The band is based in Kolkata, West Bengal, though they term themselves Global Citizens.
Cheese - the name came from wit and humour that this band has in plenty. 'Fun' being the middle name of the band, these guys have it right from corny one liners to jokes on and off stage. They believe that staying unhappy is a waste of time! You can see their big grins in all their photographs.
Being inspired by bands like Dep Leppard, U2, the Doobie Brothers, Rage Against the Machine and many others in this genre and style of music, Cheese has composed songs in Hindi as well as English encompassing different kinds of genres.
"Out of an odd 10 songs, people favourite 6 of them so we don't know what kind of genre to choose for our NEXT composition", says Aditya, the lead vocalist in the band known for his showmanship and vocal prowess.
Jonathan in the band is known for being lazy, though when he touches his keyboards, it seems he has five pairs of hands! The other members have nicknamed him Yanni.
Arjun does most of the composing new riffs and songs and marketing the band. It is rumoured - he even dreams musical tunes when he sleeps and then wakes up to bring out a new song! Aditya takes over the tune and ‘lyricizes’ it, no matter how dreamy it might have sounded.
Samrat is known for his "I don't care, the metronome is off!" attitude and is most of the time over enthusiastic about everything. Even if it doesn’t concern him.
All in all the enthusiasm of the band is noteworthy and not to mention their infectious laughter.
One of the most spectacular features about these musicians is that they are self taught and have never undergone any formal training in music thus their music never follows any particular pattern making each and every song sound different.
All the members in the band have their own separate careers (A move that Cheese wants all musicians in India to follow) from owning IT Companies to Dredging Barges and have music as their most ardent hobby and least to mention - their Passion.
