The band
Kunaal Biswas
Bass
Born and brought up in Kolkata in the eighties, Kunaal was interested in music from a very young age. His interest evolved over his teenage years and he started composing and producing his own songs. As an established musician, he became a part of the cultural and philosophical exchange that was bringing a revolution to Bengal's musical landscape.
He came to be regarded as a pillar of the Bengal music scene and worked professionally and personally with established folk artists and bauls from all over Bengal. Creating awareness of the ancient philosophy of bauls and their music came easy to him; the bauls saw him as one of their own.
It was during this time Kunaal joined the newly formed Fakira. His addition opened doors to the introverted baul community like never before, and his journey with the band is still going strong.
