Plok
Formed in 2002, Barefaced Liar is an
amalgamation of the distinct and eclectic musical taste of its members, Akshay
Chowdhry (Vocals, Guitars), Sumant Balakrishnan (Guitars, Vocals) and Dushyant
Purohit (Bass). The band is heavily influenced by all time classic sounds of
bands and artists such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, SRV, Hendrix and Metallica
while leaning towards a more modern sound in the style of Tool, Stone Temple
Pilots, etc..
Based out of a country and culture that is still
embracing the concept of rock ‘n roll and live music, BFL has worked
passionately on honing their craft in terms of combining technical skill and
quality songwriting. The combination of influences backed by a loaded blues
rock driven guitar style that developed over the years, led to a unique
east-west dynamic that has translated into complete and relevant songwriting.
Over the past few years, the band has done dozens of studio sessions that have
yielded positive results- besides gaining vital experience , one of their
tracks- ‘Carnation’, has been featured on several compilations in India as well
as an upcoming artists compilation in Los Angeles. Two of their tracks ‘Glow’
and ‘Mirage’, have received International acclaim as ‘Semi Finalists’ from the
UK Songwriters Contest for 2009 and 2010.
