Band Profile

Adam Avil ( Lead guitarist )

Armed with his favourite Les Paul sunburst, Adam has been rippin' crazy leads through the years and continues to show great aesthetic sense in his compositions.His sheer energy on stage resembles a 'Mick Jagger' and his style has an innovative trademark.

Adam resembles a runaway train that knows no stops, no signals but just the destination.This self-taught lead guitarist of the band grew up on Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, U2 & Bon Jovi. Adam is also a very big fan of Charles Chaplin & Jackie Chan.

Pralay emerged as a revolutionary original Rock band in the 90's and it was formed by Adam with brother Eddie, and Adam seems to have lost not even an ounce of spirit, he continues to worship his music and Page, Perry, Gilmour, Slash are his prophets.

Adam lives for the moment and dies to leap in action, he is an extremist: extreme laziness to extreme hard work.Besides writing the music and lyrics for the band, he also writes poetry, is a playwright, loves cricket, reading and touring besides having great affinity for movies.

Eddie Avil ( Bassist )

Eddie plays the lows in the band but loves the high ! Songwriter/Composer par excellence, even his lyrics are soul stirring. Eddie is lightning on stage and has great presence and in contrast is very quiet and shy off stage, yet a very comfortable person to be with.5'11" tall, this man rocks like you have never seen before. A very down to earth individual who lives, breathes, eats, drinks and will die for,Rock'n'Roll.

What is striking about Eddie is his varied musical taste that ranges from Yanni to Jagjit Singh but yet his compositions remain distinguished. Eddie is a sound scientist, besides being a self taught musician and is a big fan of 80's Rock music and devours Pink Floyd and GnR. 'Ten' by Pearl Jam and 'Dark side of the moon' by Pink Floyd are his rank favourites.

Pralay is his musical child and he has never believed in side projects because the sheer intensity of the band's music exhausts his passions. His musical influences are Flea (RHCP), Billy Sheehan but he enjoys any good music in any genre, style or instruments.

Brian Soans

Brian keeps the rhythm going in the band on and off stage. A very gentle person with a great sense of humor and is very spontaneous. A fun-loving and lively person, he always finds a way to keep the band smiling, there has never been a dull moment since he joined the band.

He adapts well to any kind of musical situation, has filled in for bass, key duties at times, gives some beautiful backing vocals and is also a profesional DJ.He listens to everything from Metallica to hip-hop to dance music and his influences are varied but adores Slash and Richie Sambora.

Brian dreams of playing at the Wembley Stadium. He is also interested in other art forms and likes cartooning & cooking.
