Satish has been playing on the NYC jazz-funk-fusion-jam band scene for over 6 years. He plays a unique instrument called the Firebird, a combination trumpet-trombone, which he uses to imitate traditional Indian gamakas (bends, slides, shakes, and other ornaments). He leads the popular NYC band Indofunk, which has 2 CDs out, and has numerous other recordings to his credit. For more information, please see http://www.IndofunkCity.com

At Tunefulness, he performed a short rAgam-tAnam (rubato improvisation) on a rAga he developed based on the Hindustani rAg kAfi and was assisted by his trusty tamboura synthesizer and effects processor.
