Why this name?
Our guitarist and founder member, Raja, came up with the name, after watching the movie 'Airheads'...
After numerous reasoning sessions, we decided to stick with the name as it signified our minority like presence in the music scene, considering the type of music we play, in comparison to todays modern sounding bands...

Do you play live?
We're based in Bengal, a land of varying musical tastes...
Though receptive audiences have been rare, we've managed to appeal to a large segment of the musical fraternity...
We've done a couple of live gigs... all small scale though...
The arenas where we've gained maximum exposure are the various talent hunts and battle of the bands that take place across the city...
We love playing for an open minded audience, not a prejudiced one...
Too many special moments to write about...

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet is a boon as well as a bane for the music industry...
Through it, listeners have easy access to the various forms of music they like or are interested in, but at the same time, illegal distribution of mp3s, piracy and plagiarism are also made possible through the world wide web...
I think, if well protected, and under a rigid infrastructure, the internet can do wonders for the music industry...

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Of course, as long as we are not asked to compromise with the type of music we play...
