MUMBAI: There is no debate in accepting that, the Bengaluru-based band Parvaaz is a good example of ‘East meets West’. Parvaaz’s sound that portrays Pink Floyd-esque essence, gives you an idea about the band’s mélange of its own. Today, Parvaaz releases a brand new music video of most popular song ‘Shaad’ today on its YouTube channel, which is mystic as evermore.
In this version of ‘Shaad’, the lyrics are changed a bit, though the music video captured the emotions of the times we live in. In that addition, Khalid Ahamed’s vocals, along with Mir Kashif Iqbal’s guitar, Fidel D'souza’s bass and Sachin Banandur’s drums will give soul to your universe, wings to your mind, a voyage to the imagination and charm to life and to everything.

Very few artists manage to preserve 'art' even after years of being active. Parvaaz is one of the few dynamic Indie acts to stay true to its roots. A story conceptualised by Gokul Chakravarthy with many hidden messages along with the beautiful cinematography at the end, shows distress, uncertainty, anger, misery and those troubled moments in time when all of us are occupied in the pursuit of happiness but no one seems to be getting there.
In that addition, the video ‘Shaad’ is Parvaaz’s first of the two singles, the band will release this month before they start work on their second full-length studio album. Also, the band is all set to make its debut in a Bollywood film ‘Vodka Diaries’.
