Enjoy the best of the Rock/Pop genre by KAASH, who have just released there new album "SAWAN" 
KAASH is a musical endeavor started in the year 2008. KAASH blends Indian melodies and sensibilities with a scorching Rock backbone, creating an ingenious sound, which emancipates a sea of emotions and nostalgia in the heart of its listeners.
The group released their first song “Main Laut Aaunga” in August 2009 which went on to become one of the most searched Hindi Rock tracks on the Internet with over 50 fan videos and more than 10,00,000 views. After that the band released 5 more tracks on the Internet which were received with even greater love and enthusiasm. Heart wrenching melodies, subtle lyrics, lavish ornamentation, and an unusual simplicity are their trademarks.
The band has built up a serious fan following online, with close to 2 lakh fans on their Facebook page. Several websites including reverbnation.com and indianrockmp3.com have ranked them as the No. 1 rock band in the country. Equally at home in a concert hall or a downtown club, KAASH embraces opportunities to bring their music to new listeners in non-traditional spaces. They have played to audiences throughout the country from Trivandrum to Guwahati to Jaipur and Delhi being their home crowd always greets them with the “loudest and proudest cheers”. The band has also shared the stage with some of the most renowned musicians in the world including Grammy winning Greek Bassist Panagiotis Andrew, Grammy nominated Mexican vocalist Magos Herrera and Slovenian jazz guitar legend Igor Bezget. 
Statistics aside, KAASH’s indelible mark on the Independent Hindi Music has given it a dignity and a richness that it rightfully deserves. This Delhi band has tried to redefine Hindi Rock by distilling the purest essence of its rhythmic soul and infusing into it luminous production quality and equally stunning songs. 
KAASH is an eccentric set of five people Viren (vocals), Shivam (keyboards), Nishant (guitars), Sonic (bass), Nirvan (drums). Backed by solid education they show a marked disregard of any musical style limitations.
Keyboardist Shivam Khare is a unique and well-rounded musician with a plethora of harmonic language that is very much audible in the music of KAASH. Adept at both western classical music and contemporary music he also studied Jazz at the prestigious jazz school SAM under New York based virtuoso pianist Jason Lindner, and was also adjudged as the “Most Distinguished Student”. Apart from being a gifted keyboard player he is also a composer and arranger.
Guitarist Nishant Parashar is an intuitive musician whose instincts and passions are balanced by his versatility and technical dexterity. Tutored by the world famous Prasanna who has been complimented as “a living hope for quality music” by Academy Award winner A.R.Rahman and Berklee College of Music Guitar Department awardee Rubens de la Corte he believes that music is to be felt and connect with, and should never be filtered through a conscious mind.
Bass duties are with Sonic Shori who is again a student of Grammy-nominated Greek-American musician Panagiotis Andreou. He has comprehensive stage experience having collaborated with musicians coming from different genres including classical, fusion, funk and metal. His playing combines complexity with cohesion, playing melodies with a breathtaking dexterity, musicality and tenacity.
The youngest member of the band Nirvan Pareva is the man behind the drums. He has been coached by the immensely talented drum virtuoso Benny Greb. He recently won 2nd place at the Can-cercussonist Drummer Competition held in New Delhi. He has played with the likes of world-renowned fretless guitar player Ed De Generro and jazz legend Steve Zerlin.
Viren Saini is the vocalist of the band. He has an idiosyncratic style of writing beautiful songs using simple chord progressions and simple lyrics. He has no formal training in Music and considers Life as his teacher. His flair with words, his soulful voice and his unique song-writing skills are his assets. 
KAASH is a band blessed with both strength and intellect, architects of a true Hindi Rock sound they bring a sense of freshness and spontaneity. Their songs sound both honest and genuine; and have a sense of striking purity, undeniable magic and an unmistakable originality.
On a parting note Viren says,
“We just love writing songs about how all of us feel.”
