Three Brothers & A Violin

The Three Brothers and a Violin had no problem in finding a name for themselves. But the problem came when the three of them sat down to plan their first album. It took the three Parsuram brothers---Sriram, Narayan and Viswanath and their white midi zeta violin---months to decide the language and the genre of music to select for their debut album. A year later, they brought out their debut album Savariya (Once Upon A Time) that rocked the Indipop world. The album introduced an altogether new sound to the Indian pop listener with its extensive use of harmonies and Sriram's violin. The music veers towards fusion and has almost a classical base. The three brothers feel that Indipop is still in its evolving stages and through Savariya, they have attempted to elevate the Indipop genre to a high where it rightfully belongs. Says Sriram, "The album seeks to define its own idiom. It springs from our understanding of classical music. The compositions and the singing seek to blend the fresh with the familiar, Indian and International, traditional and the contemporary."
