In 2008 I met Suraj Mani he and his band Motherjane were just about to release Maktub that went on to bring band International Acclaim and countless awards , the Band featuring Suraj, Baiju and Deepu have reunited the 15 year Anniversary !
History of Motherjane Angel ...
Suraj knew I was passionate about promoting music and asked me to adopt the band and take on the persona of Motherjane Angel who shared the message of his lyrics and the band's music with the world. I soon became known as "The Angel" aka Rock's Guardian Angel both with Motherjane fans and other Indie bands and fans for my work in sharing the message of Rock Music with the World from countries where rock music is often not accepted and even banned. The Angel is now a part of me as is Motherjane and so I am so excited to share their music with World !

“Insane Biography dropped in on the then-underground Indian originals scene in 2002 to receive great acclaim.It wasn’t every day that Indian rock delivered such a well-produced album of originals.” – Rolling Stone India
“Their award-winning Matkub is a journey into the deep South, with roaring Carnatic melodies and a
progressive delivery that shapes and gives new meaning to progressive rock.” - RSJ India
“The first time I listened to Motherjane’s Maktub I was fascinated by the mix of Western and Eastern sounds in it: rock riffs, and atmospheric, vaguely ethnic passages. Also the song theme reminded me of ancient gods and Asian markets in a prog rock sauce. Then I learned that these musicians were from India and all was clear to me. Actually there are many different worlds in this song and many different influences.”–Prog Rock Lil Place
“The packed Palace Grounds venue had the right atmosphere to get the band members sizzling on stage. The
mood was perfect, the setting just right for Motherjane..” – The Hindu’s review of a Motherjane gig.
