Ashish Sinha
Biography
Ashish Sinha is a guitar player and a composer from Kathmandu, Nepal. For those who might know, Ashish led a ‘fusion’ band in the early 90s called ‘Shristi’ and collaborated with multiple international artists, including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame artist Donovan Leitch (aka the Mellow Yellow man). Ashish’s group also toured the USA twice in late 90s playing together with a US based band The World Colors. Ashish’s music is influenced by the Himalayas and the hippies who flocked Kathmandu in the 60s and 70’s. Kathmandu literally was a destination for the flower children; its 'strange and bewildering time’ captured many hearts. Ashish tries to blend in these influences from his vantage point of growing up in Kathmandu. His music is introspective, psychedelic, mind bending and out of the box with clear innuendos of the Eastern and Western influences. He welcomes his listeners to immerse into his music, twist their head and expereince whatever they may.
