Pralay guitarist Adam Avil goes solo

Adam Avil, Indian rock artist and lead guitarist, founder and vocalist of the band ‘Pralay’, is back in the news. Adam Avil has gone solo and geared up to come out with his first EP (Extended Play) called Relentless which is a blues rock album. Adam is also all set to release a new EP and a Bollywood film in 2017

Adam Avil started playing guitars, composing and writing along with Eddie Avil, after years of struggle to break into the international music scene. Their debut album was ‘Urban Reality’ which went on to reach great heights. Adam founded rock band Greek in the early 90's along with his brother Eddie Avil and Luke Kenny, which was latter named Pralay. Key past members of the band are Joy Dutta, Victor D’souza, Brian Soans and Ulysses Veyra.

‘Urban Reality’ was nominated in Grammy's 2003 in World Music Category. The album was later released in India by Anurag Kashyap.

Speaking on the his new work, he said, “The album/EP comprises four songs and the concept behind is somebody shouldn’t stop and it is never too late. The EP will be out in January 2017.”

Well, that is not enough. Adam has been out of the box, produced, and directed a film ‘Jango’ that is a Bollywood action thriller film. It is the outcome of an original story written by Adam Avil much before Quentin Tarantino’s movie ‘Django Unchained’ was released. The movie features Adam Avil in the lead role. Besides, it will feature actors like Mukesh Asopa, Trishna Mukherjee, and Sanjeev Jaiswal. The film is due to be released in theatres in India sometime in late 2017.

Adam added, “I have directed, produced and also acted in the film. This is about a man with a guilt trip attempting to both vindicate and redeem himself amidst a clandestine conspiracy between the Mumbai underworld, the Mumbai Police and politicians.”

Adam also co directed the music for a thriller Bollywood film ‘Sixteen’, and has also co directed  the music of ‘Sunshine Music Tours and Travels’.
