Reloaded: Still Waters performs with new vocalist

GANGTOK, 22 April: The much anticipated rock concert, “Reloaded” featuring Still Waters from Gangtok, was held here at Cafe Live and Loud, Gangtok on 21 April. Produced and managed by The Alpine Attitude, an event Management Company based in Sikkim, the concert was originally planned as an open-air concert at MG Marg, but due to incessant rain and bad weather, the venue was changed.
Although Still Waters are one of the pioneers of rock music in Sikkim, who have been performing in major rock concerts all over India since 2001 and have also been specially featured in MTV Roots, the concert was all the more important for the band as they were playing their very first gig in Sikkim with their new vocalist, Abhisek Lemo Gurung. Secondly, for the first ever time in Sikkim and probably in the entire north east region of India, the organizers were streaming the concert live on internet.
Amidst a mix of speculations and excitement, the show started at 7:00 PM to a packed audience. Abhisek’s powerful vocals blended very well with the music of the band and they delivered a real tight performance with every song and every note. The band performed two of their originals, ‘Live a little’ and ‘Happy go lucky’ from their 1st album and there were calls for encore both the times. The band covered songs from AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Guns & Roses, Pink Floyd, among others and the crowd was left asking for more. The show being streamed live online was viewed from as far as Dubai, Nepal, Australia, Bhutan, etc. (Quality videos will be uploaded to the official youtube channel of The Alpine Attitude.)
Still Waters is currently being managed by The Alpine Attitude which plans to have an open air concert on 20 May at MG Marg, Gangtok. It would be a great treat for all rock fans as the entry would be free.
