It was a privilege to be invited by HUMM FM to be their ambassadors to promote for the 1st time an INDIAN Radio station at the Farmers Santa Parade - quite an honour!! Our thanks to Roshila Prasad and her team, especially McCoy D'Silva and Ajay Vashist for insisting we were the right band to do this for them. Nasha did their usual brand of music, showcasing an INDO KIWI theme doing Modern Contemporary Pop, Iconic Kiwi Hits and Bollywood. From punters who have messaged us.. from the audience (100,000 strong, apparently!!) they said they LOVED the High Energy performance as the float went down the main Queen Street in the CBD. This was also a FIRST for a LIVE band to play on a float in the 80 year history of the parade!! Drumadiddle students were also showcased adding Indian and Western percussion.
