One Man Band · Duo · Trio / Guitarist / Songwriter
ROSHAN's unique live sound can be strong, like a 5 piece band, or as delicate as a flute or acoustic piano. Performing alone or with sax and/or congas, it's a complete musical experience. Besides his many guitar styles, he also plays Guitar Synthesizer to sound like trumpet, sax, flute, vibes, a horn section, and more.
He has the sound of a full band, complete with drums, bass, guitar, horns, keyboards, and up to five voices at once. His music can be mellow-Light Jazz, Standards, and Hawaiian, or full on dance/party music - Classic Rock and R&B with a touch of Reggae thrown in. Of course he can mix &match to suit your taste.
