'The Songs of The Balladeer' is a show that blends storytelling with a line-up of rare, largely forgotten songs, lyrics and melodies that have been lost in the mists of time.

The flavor of 'The Songs of The Balladeer' is retro, with a focus on lyrics, melodies and emotions that underline the human condition.

The format is one that the artiste has performed across various cities in India and Pakistan.

A few examples that give a taste of what to expect: Sinner Man, the artist's rendition of a centuries' old song set in the Wild West; Death Come Easy and Johnny I Hardly Knew Ya, both anti-war songs; Daddy Rolling Stone, a lean and mean rock number; Man Piaba, a smartly funny lesser known classic.
