Just When I Thought It Was All Over!

I’m not too sure how to reflect upon my frustration with the indie scene as of early 2008, so I won’t even try (be glad, I’ve just spared you a volume of reading). However, it is a new year and with its coming I’ve decided to make some resolutions, because that’s what a new year is all about. One of those being that I will search ’til my eyes pop out and my ears explode for something that moves me (musically speaking, of course).

The search went on for days, without water or food and my mouth became as dry as an army of cotton balls (that’s pretty damn dry!). But alas, the voyage has ended! After days of MySpace searches (I know, it’s creepy! Sue me!), I have found something, or rather someone, worth writing about.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Mandippal Jandu; a young and talented East-Indian artist born in Leyton, London, England and raised in Canada. Some of you may already be familiar with him because of his already growing popularity, and if you aren’t, GET FAMILIAR! I mean, honestly, at the tender age of 22, how many of us can say we’ve already accomplished so much and reached out to so many people?

This past summer,  Mandippal released his first EP entitled When It’s Only Me Standing, and it is definitely something you need to hear for yourself.

Just when I thought all hope was lost, and my interest in the indie scene had faded completely into the background, I found a spark that ignited the passion that was flickering inside of me (that was pretty damn indie right?).

Anways keep an eye out for Mandippal Jandu and if you have the chance to venture out to one of his live shows, I suggest you do.
