Spud in the Box.

Rohan Rajadhyaksha knows how to take it one gig at a time. The vocalist/keyboardist of Mumbai alt/pop rock band Spud In The Box, who recently performed in Delhi as part of the Gig Week, says, “Ever since Josh [drummer Joshua Singh] joined [in July], we’ve been working on our fulltime set and not had a second to breathe.”

The band, which last played an acoustic show in April at Blue Frog in Mumbai, is retooling their stripped-down, unplugged set for a fundraiser gig at Mumbai restobar, Bonobo, this weekend. Part of a music-and-art program by fundraising venture company The Smile Project, the gig features Spud In The Box playing a 45-minute set and art by Pune design school FAD [Fashion Art Design] Academy. The event will raise funds for Jal Jyoti, an NGO which aims at lighting underprivileged households in Mumbai by fitting bulbs inside bottles to create “bottled lights.”

While Spud has played a few charity gigs in the past [including You For Uttarakhand last month], Rajadhyaksha says The Smile Project fundraiser was in the works for a couple of months. “They [organizers] got in touch with us after Jared [Creado, bassist with Mumbai alt punk band BLEK] gave me their contact,” says the vocalist.

For their acoustic set at Bonobo, Rajadhyaksha says all six members won’t be performing together during the gig, adding, “But we’ll all be there and we might play in different combinations.” The band will play a mellow version of one of their trippier numbers, “Bullet Points.” Says Rajadhyaksha, “It’s completely different acoustic. We try to make it as interesting as possible,” adding that the band recorded an acoustic version of “Bullet Points” last year for the soundtrack to Indo-Czech film All the Lost Souls. “We played an acoustic set at Mocha Mojo in Bandra in August last year and the director, Ahmed Faiyaz, was there and he liked it and said he wanted to use it,” says Rajadhyaksha. In addition, the band is currently working on new material and reworking existing material with drummer Singh. Says Rajadhyaksha, “When there’s a lineup change, you should be able to hear a new sound.”

Spud In The Box plays at Bonobo, Mumbai on September 29th, 2013 as part of The Smile Project’s fundraiser gig for Jal Jyoti. Entry: Rs. 200. Event details here.

That a crowd shows up for a gig in the North Mumbai suburb of Andheri is a big deal. That the crowd showed up despite it being one of the wettest days this monsoon is a feat. Over 200 people made it to the most recent edition of BOMB Thursdays, making it the most attended gig of the fortnightly series as yet. Music enthusiasts had good reason to have not missed the gig – Kolkata post punk band were making their Mumbai debut, Mumbai band Spud In The Box were gigging with their brand new drummer Joshua Singh, The Lightyears Explode, also from Mumbai, promised to bring the house down as always and producer Ayan De’s solo project Paralights was slated to bring the night to a close with some mellow, trippy EDM. 

Here’s a look at how the evening unfolded

Spud in the Box is a six piece Alternative Pop-Rock band formed in March 2011 in Mumbai.

It involves the musical energies Zubin Bhathena on bass, Rohan Rajadhakshya on vocals and keyboards, Ankit Dayal on vocals and guitar, and Hartej Sawhney and Siddharth Talwar on guitars. 

Concentrating on writing fresh original songs and creating a live show that exhilarates every single person in the audience is the general motto of the band. This has garnered them a large fan base over the last 2 years in Mumbai, along with many in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Delhi, and Pune as well. They have opened for some of the biggest acts in India like Indus Creed, Junkyard Groove and Raghu Dixit and have also opened for international artist, Norah Jones (at A Summer's Day in Mumbai).

SitB has played at the Bacardi NH7 Weekender 2012 (Pune), the Revival of the Bandstand festival on two occasions, The M.A.D. Festival Ooty, the fifth edition of Live From The Console at Mehboob Studios, the Celebrate Bandra Festival, Hard Rock Cafe Mumbai, Hard Rock Cafe Delhi, Hard Rock Cafe Hyderabad, Hard Rock Cafe Pune, Cocoparra (Pune), The High Spirits Pune, Counter Culture (Bangalore), Opus (Bangalore), Sitara Studios (for Control Alt Delete 3) and several times at Blue Frog (Mumbai). 

The band released its debut EP, titled 'Attention Please' in January 2013, which has received a majority of positive reviews from around the country. The band now aims to spread their music, play to each and every soul in the continent and beyond, to garner a larger audience and release their debut album in the near future.
