"When you do the common things in life in an uncommon way, you command the attention of the world." Like the saying, Masala has not merely been a band of 5 but an experience for our members in re-inventing stereotypes both in the local music industry but also within ourselves. Masala has been a fusion of talents, a “mixture of spices” so to say, creating music to continually touch and invigorate the lives of our listeners i.e. we plan on them being EVERYBODY. Masala is a 5-person band (see -picture:Gavin Rees drums, Joanne Suh vocals,percussion, Bobby Uhlenbrock bass,guitar, Aravind Menon vocals, Andy Shih guitars, vocals) with home-base in Cincinnati OH. We’re from everywhere in the US of Ain fact,our backgrounds are both international and from all over the United States and that diversity has played out in our musical capabilities. The sound is pop/rock the three-person harmonies are what we love a lot about our music. The melodies themselves are often derived from high-energy guitar-riffs that seem to be surrounding, almost trying to contain our dark stories of love, pain, healing or joy
