Blues is My Soulmate

Throw together insane vocals and an ability to play the guitar like Santana (or in Udai's opinion, Led Zeppelin) and you have Shillong based blues band, Soulmate.

The lead singer, Tipriti, has the power of an entire Roman army in her voice and is absolutely epic at what she does. The guitarist and hubby of said singer, Rudy Wallang (A family of musicians, what could be cooler?) plays the guitar like a God and has the most soothing voice. As for the music... it just flows from the two of them. Naturally. Effortlessly.

When Live, there is so much energy being flung across the area, that even a half dead hippo would want to jump around and groove. Their chemistry is very very good. Its like they were born to be up there on stage, together.

The sound is inspired by the roots and groove sounds of the Blues, Blues-rock, Soul, Rock ‘n Roll, Funk and R&B.
I just spent ten minutes typing and backspacing words to describe it but I really cant. You can hear a few tracks at their Myspace page(hyperlinking really isn't that hard *cheeky grin* ) and decide for yourself.
Personally, I'd recommend "Blues is my Soulmate", but I'd urge you to hear them all.

A band worth more than just a litsen, give it up for "Soulmate"

*applause and cheering. hooting maybe*
