The Boite Presents Suitcase, as part of The Boite’s Portfolio program. The program is creating opportunities for 10 emerging culturally diverse artists/bands in Melbourne/Naarm to showcase their original music. We promise you won’t want to miss this series of shows!
PRATIK SAURAV
Pratik’s music brings in the diversity, storytelling and tones from different beautiful cultures of the Indian subcontinent with a modern approach. He thrives on what he calls, Fusion music that enables him to bring together multiple languages, genres and cultures together in a rather simple storytelling style. He primarily focuses on light classical, sufi, bollywood music with hints of classic genres like modern, pop, jazz and blues. It’s a confluence of emotions and he loves it with slight imperfections, spontaneity and experimentation to keep it real for himself and his audiences. He is a Data & Analytics Consultant by the week and a musician by the weekend.
POMAA
Fascinated by the complexities of human connection, Pomaa crafts intricate tales of relationships between loved ones, friends and self. Her music is a mixture of driving alternative rock and waltz-like dream pop, making listeners reminisce about the ups and downs of life and the people in it.
Her debut single, “I Can’t Wait ‘Til This Doesn’t Matter”, was an exploration of overthinking and ultimately recognising that it is a temporary state of mind. It acknowledges the inner conflict of reliving your past but also represents hope for the time when these thoughts no longer weigh you down.
Pomaa is now planning to record her debut EP, Bridge to Somewhere, which she is expecting to release in 2023.
DESMOND MASE
A multifaceted artist of the FuturePunk/DystopianSoul/SciFiHipHop genre. Desmond Mase documents mankind’s legacy of self destruction through his music and tells
tales of vivid fantasy grounded in an all too uncomfortable reality.
Desmond is also an audio engineer who has worked with artists like Benny Walker and Dan Sultan.
