I was thrilled to be invited to Zoe Viccaji’s album launch by
the Tapal Green Tea team earlier this week. The event took place at one of the
local clubs and was attended by celebrities from both music and acting circles.
The red carpet started at 7:30 pm with friends and fans expressing their views
and wishes for Zoe’s new album Dareeche. The setting was very casual and hip keeping in mind the young fan base of Zoe. There was also a "fan wall" and fun sign boards and frames to pose for pictures. Zoe’s soothing vocals kept playing in
the background creating a serene musical environment. This was followed by
Zoe’s live performance during which she sang couple of songs from her new
album. I particularly loved her version of the famous Junoon number: neend aati
nahi
Ever since Zoe started singing at Coke Studio I have been
following her and have found her music to be maturing with time. Her new album Dareeche is a combination of originals
and some famous covers as well. Ab aaoo na has a classical/folk touch to it
with very soothing vocals. Another favorite is Raat Gaye which is a soft fun
ballad. The album includes other hits like jis ne bhi aana hai, ishq kinara and
the mesmerizing covers bichra yaar and neend aati nahi.
