SPB


Vesakhi passed a couple of days ago. I decided to bring my Macbook to good use by designing a SPB Vesakhi Greeting poster for all our friends, family, supporters and clients. I have to say it was really easy.  

The hard part was actually getting it to be part of the rich text in the email. I had to ask samantha to figure that one out for me. 

Anyone who knows me would attest that SPB has been one of the biggest parts of my life the last few years. Last year i was really tired from everything though and i would only go, not for the bhangra, but for the friends. But that has since changed after my 5 month 'rest' in the States. 

Apart from the needed break, i think we've been doing alot of things different this year. Practices are about fun now. We've made it simple and invited a host of random people to join us in our open sessions. The SPB Open sessions have made bhangra fun again. 

The only reason we could be so relaxed is because we've just been accepting less performances, doing mainly shows that truly excite us. The recent Punjabi Folk Music was fun and we simply cannot wait for this Sunday.

SPB will be performing at the Vesakhi Mela. The crowd there is just insane. Singapore is currently being build by an army of foreign workers. A huge portion of those foreign workers are Punjabis. They are all going to be at the mela and they are gonna be screaming and dancing when our music plays. It's gonna be truly electric. 

Once that is over, we'll be concentrating on some new developments. More details soon when things finalize. All i can say now is that there are going to be a lot of interesting changes. Exciting times ahead.
