Kitchensink has been performing since 2013 and has steadily gained the reputation of being a refreshingly original and sought-after voice in the burgeoning independent music circuit of New Delhi, India. Featuring some of the finest session-musicians in the city, the band was a result of jam sessions in which bassist Jayant Manchanda, drummer Siddharth Jain and pianist Rohit Gupta were introduced to sketches of melodies and lyrics co-written by guitarist Adhir Ghosh and vocalist (and lyricist) Smiti Malik. Kitchensink writes songs in which reflective and deeply personal lyrics meet with the inclusive and improvisational nature of jazz. The repertoire of the band is primarily original material, and further features innovative arrangements of Jazz, R&B and Soul tunes. In a little over a year, Kitchensink has performed at several concerts and a number of festivals in India. Some of these include the Chandigarh Jazz Festival (December 2014), The Friends of Music Concert Series (June 2014), The DIY DAY Festival (April 2014) and a curated performance at the India Habitat Center (June 2014). Apart from this, the band continues to be a regular feature in various cultural venues, pubs and restaurants across the city.   Band Members: Smiti Malik - Vocals Siddharth Jain - Drums Adhir Ghosh - Guitar Jayant Manchanda - Bass
