Artist description
90 Million Miles, the first major release from the band Bayadera, is set to hit the
ground running this summer. The Orange County California based group
consists of Gina Bandy (lead vocals), Dat Nguyen (guitars, backup vocals), Chris
Payne (bass, backup vocals), Mehrdad Saatara (guitars) and Adam Reesman
(drums). Originally formed in 1999 the band has seen its share of stylistic and
personnel changes. The result has been positive, as Bayadera transformed into
a powerful, energetic mixture of guitar driven rock with emotionally deep vocals
and ethnic/electronic nuances. Bayadera has performed extensively throughout
southern California including performances at the House of Blues in Anaheim,
Disney Entertainment, The Galaxy Theater, The Whisky-a-Go-Go, as well as
festivals on the east coast with legends such as Arturo Sandoval. The band has
also had its share of media coverage from mainstream radio with Rick Dees and
102.7 KIISFM, one of southern California’s largest radio stations, to international
festivals aired on KSCI TV. Bayadera has proudly endorsed Yamaha guitars for
the past three years. With their technical prowess and command of the stage,
Bayadera’s concerts are a must see event. 90 Million Miles hits stores June 24th,
with select tour dates already scheduled in Southern California and the east
coast. Get your copy online at www.bayadera.com or Tower Records in Brea,
Ca. Check the website for a Bayadera concert near you.
