Latest news 2022

Well a lot has happened, a few years ago, when I was 42 to be exact I recalled a childhood trauma, and as a result I started makng music, I have made over 60 albums, but released 6 under Spotify and Apple Music using my Bengali name SHONCHI

I now can play the piano, bass, acoustic and electric guitar, and a bit of tabla and Zitar. 

It's been an amazing journey and I have performed in Malaysia, Singapore, London, Brussels and Berlin. My next gig is at L'Archiduc in Brussels.

I also received an Arts Council grant to launch my book the Tree People, will be updating the site with images.

Have yet to post the work I did with the Rohingya as a volunteer, I made a film about the refugees entitled Rohingya Lives Matters.

At the moment I am getting ready to do my book launch of The Tree People at Brick Lane book shop on 14th July 2022.

I am also exhbiting my Ukraine work at Wulder Gallery in Belgium, have to post that work too. 

It's a horrific and uncertain time which makes the arts more crucial than ever. Lots of new work to post which I haven't got round to doing because I post new work on instagram at Shonchi369

Finally, major news just found out that I am doing a project with garments workers in Jordan, Ethiopia and Cambodia, I will be documenting their stories, I can't wait.
