Nevermind, The Band - A Group Of Good Friends Who Love Doing Music Together

Nevermind It was when the four students (Shinjan, Shreya, Subhayu, Saptarshi) from different batches and departments of Future Institute of Engineering and Management came together to form a music club that the idea of this band was first conceived. There was no fixed drummer. In some of the first stage shows the audience would be surprised at the sight of the drummer and the guitarist changing roles. Then Anindya joined as the drummer. We were still learning about live acoustics and on stage glitches that can upset all pre-determined plans. Soon Soumyadeep joined as the guitarist and Subhayu shifted to bass. With Shinjan and Shreya on vocals and Saptarshi on the keyboards the band was named Nevermind. Later on Shinjan had to leave for Mumbai and Arunava joined as a brilliant young vocalist.

Also, he is a writer, producer, and creates Hip Hop drum loops and sample cds for Zero G, and puts out his own CDS, the latest one being "Swinging Guitar Sounds Of Young America". Some have said the CD causes "Genre Whiplash". Vinnie's current thing is adding "icing" to people's songs. Little lo fi touches and odd little touches to make a track come alive. Of course he loves adding a guitar solo as well if the song seems to want it. Vinnie LOVES all kinds of music and he is a vampire for playing diffferent styles of it on a daily basis. He craves the variety.

Vinnie is currently a top call session player in the New York City area.
