Skinny Alley is one of India's premier bands and is probably the only band in the country today that plays at corporate events, college campuses, football stadiums, smoky pubs and 5 star nightclubs with equal flair and ease.
Skinny Alley has released two CDs of original music, Escape The Roar on the Virgin EMI label, and Songs From The Moony Boom on the Counter Culture Records label.



















SATURDAY KINGFISHER BOHEMIA NIGHT : 19th July "CLOSET SNARE" ( South Africa)

Closet Snare is a project involving a select group of talented and experienced musicians along with Visual Artist grrrl.
The project had been conceptualized three years ago, and it is now that these much talked about ideas are able to become a musical reality.
Closet Snare is a platform where the musicians performing may produce music without any boundaries, genres or trends.
The band was created as a release for working musicians that are often faced with the tiring reality of being categorized in spite of their love and ability to create music that has no name.

For the purpose of some sort of commercial gain, it will however be necessary for a more descriptive explanation in terms of the sound created by Closet Snare.
There is a strong jazz influence alongside beats ranging from Break Beat and Swing to Hip-Hop.
There are moody slow tracks and tracks that display fast manic outbursts of free and improvised jazz.
There are elements of quirkiness and sometimes almost humorous musical ideas that trickle through. These ideas are due to a variety of interesting and really odd records sourced by the outstanding turntablist, the well known Cape Town based SIBOT.
