Bhajan Bhoy
Drawing from a deep well of psychedelia, Bhajan Bhoy further shifts the parameters of the genre with a beautiful and meditative set of tracks. Within this kaleidoscopic sonic universe, you will find raga-esque excursions, meditative Dream House drone, Laurel Canyon-recalling folk, electronic soundscapes and heavy guitar riffola (sometimes two chords are enough!). This is the sound of freedom! Imagine Pandit Pran Nath, Spacemen 3, Pauline Oliveros and Don Cherry drinking psilocybin tea and letting loose in a studio.

“With BHAJAN BHOY, Saggar synthesizes all of the stylistic approaches he’s explored over the years, swirling them into an intoxicating musical blend, with an earthy spirituality. Even the project’s name reflects the dual aspects of Saggar’s upbringing coming together in harmony. In Hindi, a “bhajan” is a devotional song, sung in the mandir, or temple, while “bhoy” is a Scottish and Irish derivation for a young man. There’s a searching quality to Bhajan Bhoy, as if Saggar is still hunting for transcendence with each track, whether through an expansive drone, an orchestral facility on the piano, or an electronics-augmented raga that threatens to dip into noise” (Erick Bradshaw / writer and WFMU DJ)

Piró is the project of Alex, a musical individual from the fearsome city of extreme seasons and the cierzo wind, affectionately nicknamed Zaragoza.A proud member of the city’s struggling DIY scene, he finds his voice in an oasis called Arrebato. His melodies navigate folk music with diverse roots, primarily driven by the guitar.

His songs narrate the disillusionment of politics, the joy of humanity, and the non-accidental nature of anxiety, all infused with a deep love for the instrument.

“A self-confessed lover of Richard Dawson and Richard Bishop… although really it’s only because they’re named Richard, and basically, he adores every Richard in the world.”
