KATHMANDU, FEBRUARY 5
Nepathya, the renowned folk-rock Nepali band, entertained the Nepali diasporas living in Canberra, capital of Australia, on Friday.
The band kicked-off the show with their first creation 'Aagani vari heu jhare' which helped them to establish as band in Nepal, at the full house Manning Clark Hall-Kamri in Canberra.
From folk tune filled 'Chekyo Chekyo' to sentimental hit 'Yo Zindagani', the audience swayed and sang with Amrit Gurung, Nepathya vocalist.
On the occasion, Linda Trigg, former Australian ambassador to Nepal had come to witness the concert with her family.
"It was simply amazing and magnificent show", former diplomat reacted after the concert adding the vocalist was the main source of energy but the band's overall performance was world-class. "The whole crowd enjoyed the show so did we."
As the show went on, the band played their ever-green hit numbers including 'Lampate Surati', 'Chari maryo' 'Johmsom Bazaar' among others.
While performing sentimental song 'Sirfula Siramai' lead vocalist and social activist Amrit Gurung shared his experience of Nepal's mountains and valleys and urged the audience to visit these places when visiting the home land.
The concert concluded with the band performing 'Rato ra chandra surya'. The show which started at sharp 8:30 pm lasted for two hours.
On the stage, Amrit was accompanied by Dhruba Lama on drums, Suraj Thapa on keyboards, Subin Shakya on bass, Niraj Gurung on guitars and Shanti Rayamajhi on madal.
The band is scheduled to perform at the Metro City Hall in Perth on February 5.
