Bhaswar aka Bee-a-Fiddler

At the tender age of 5, Bhaswar picked up the bow for the very first time. The rest, as they say, was pre-destined. Adequately trained in Western Classical Music, under the Royal School of Music (London), he likes experimenting with the recently evolved Neo-Classical genre of music. Though hailing from a classical background, he is well equipped in a myriad genres that include the likes of Country, Folk, Rock etc. and emphasizes in the merger of technology with traditional music.

 

Primarily engaged with the Electric Violin, Bhaswar joined the Bee and the Buskers in September, 2014 and along with Indradip, has helped the band to develop a new sound, in a new direction, under the influence of the saxophone and the violin.
