VAYU was formed in 1997 by Ravi Iyer. It is strongly influenced by Deep Purple, Rainbow, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Rush amongst other legendary bands of yesteryears.
VAYU believes in varied forms of musical expression: fusion, rock, jazz, blues, and even a bit of grunge / alternative to name a few. Manned by 4 dexterous musicians, the band offers musical virtuosity and soulful artistry that explores the spectrum of human emotions. Regular performances in the Bombay / Pune club and college circuit has earned VAYU a huge fan following. And performances with luminaries from the local and occasional international music scene — musicians of the likes of Gino Banks, Sheldon Pereira, Clifford Pereira, Jules Fuller, Gary Lawyer, Mattias ‘IA’ Eklund, Jonas Hellborg, and George Lynch — has catapulted the band to its much deserved critical acclaim.
