As the band’s pioneer Govind Menon puts it, Thaikkudam Bridge was born out of a genreless or multi-genre dream to create memorable music. The band consists of 17 friends from different professional backgrounds and from different parts of the country. What unites them is their undying passion for music. Thaikkudam Bridge belongs to India’s diversity, which is perhaps why their music is rooted everywhere.
Since its birth last year in a Kappa TV show featuring independent music, the multi-lingual and multi-genre band has grown to immense popularity. With a Facebook community following of five lakh and YouTube videos crossing 27 lakh views, it is today arguably the most followed band in the history of independent music in South India.
The band has done an average of one show every three days since its inception, playing everywhere from school and college gigs to corporate and private shows. Now, Thaikkudam Bridge is ready to embark on its first international tour starting with Australia and New Zealand in March 2015.
