Legends
they are. Legends they remain with 'Boliyan'.Kulwant
Bhamrah and Sardara Gill, the core of Apna
Sangeet have been singing and performing for
almost 25 years, making them one of the
longest surviving traditional British Bhangra
acts of the modern era.
In 1979 both Bhamrah and Sardara started
their singing careers in the band Bhujangay
Group, but decided to form their own band with
their own unique beats in late November 1983.
Apna Sangeet or 'Our Music' was born. Renowned
for their uncompromising originality, Apna
Sangeet's lyrics and music were largely
written, composed and arranged within the
band. They released 10 albums, with their hits
including 'Mera Yaar Vajaye Dhol' and 'Apna
Sangeet Vajeh Apna Sangeet'.
Apna Sangeet succeeded in recording the
first Asian promotional video to be televised
on the BBC in 1989 for the track 'Chakdey
Phattey' and were officially the first Asian
band to play in the Southern hemisphere
performing in New Zealand and Australia in
1988.
They hold an impressive cabinet full of
awards, including UK Asian Pop Awards' 1986/87
Best Upcoming Band, 1996 Best Live Band, plus
eight Gold and Platinum Discs.
What many believed to be an end to an era,
Apna Sangeet announced that they were to split
in 1995, but due to high public demand, in the
summer of 1996 the lead singers Kulwant and
Sardara decided to continue by replacing some
of the departed band members.
The newly named Apna Group continues to
evolve as one of British Bhangra's most well
respected and successful institutes. The track
'Apna Style Boliyaan' is from their Silver
Jubilee Album Diamond Cuts that released
recently. |
