Background

I have had a tremendous interest in music since I was a teenager. In fact my enthusiasm and eagerness has been to the extent of intense passion. At the age of seventeen I took training at Watford School Of Music and had the privilege to gain knowledge and experience from Mrs Ann Bright who was an excellent music teacher. Later on I joined the Watford Operatic Music Society in order to fulfill my desire. Due to my keen interest in music, I was inclined towards Asian music, in particular the music of the Indian sub-continent and ultimately in 1983, I sang on stage as a solo artist. This activity helped me to expand and enhance my knowledge and experience. In addition to the aforesaid, I approached a well known Asian music teacher namely Mr Sulheria who currently lives in London, with a view to further my knowledge and this process has certainly helped me to improve the basics in music in a comprehensive way. I have mastered the technique of mixing the Jazz music into classical Indian music as well as mixing pop music into the modern Indian film music and folk music.

I am a vocalist lead singer and I also compose music myself and produce my own CDs.

In addition to the above, I have established a group known as A & K Musical Group which is a combination of both talent and potential. This group possess the ability to perform the variety shows as well as a three person band. Due to the fact that Luton has one of the largest population originating from the Indian sub-continent, A & K Musical Group are able to provide them the entertainment by way of singing in various languages including Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, and Pahari. I, being the principle of the A & K musical group ensure that the entertainment to the Asian community is provided as per their requirement.
