Colorado USA Swindler Exposed by WOA Records: Beware of Xiren (Seer-rin), a con man and fraud

Xiren (Seer-rin), a Colorado resident and local small time musician, begged to joined the WOA Records India Tour in 2008. WOA International being the charitable organization that it is felt pity for this wannabe and accepted him on the WOA Records India Tour. These are the real facts of how Xiren (Seer-rin) went on to cheat WOA Records and the founder Oliver Sean. Written by MTV Europe Music Awards Nominee Oliver Sean

W.O.A International - June 3rd 2013 - This is an official release to a defamatory blog posted by a cheat and con man called Xiren (Seer-rin) from Colorado USA. Xiren got accepted by WOA and was allowed to join the annual WOA Records India Tour in 2008 along with several other International artists from around the world. The WOA Records India Tour is an annual event, organized by WOA International and made available for deserving Independent artists looking for a platform to reach audiences in a vast music loving country like India. In the year 2008 there were unforeseen occurrences beyond our control that disrupted many events due to general security reasons in this region, resulting which a couple of our main booked concerts in two cities got cancelled.  This resulted in huge losses to WOA but none to the artists because we ensured that the artists were given FREE accommodation with FREE buffet breakfast of  a sumptuous spread of the best of the best menu choices in continental, Goan and Indian menus.  All this in a well known and much respected 4 star resort the 'The Sun Village Resort' in Goa,  paid for by W.O.A Records and Oliver Sean.

The artists were picked up from the airport in an air-conditioned car, given 4 star hotel accommodation with breakfast and free meals on days of the shows /media meets / TV appearances and other media related schedules. Furthermore  subsidized meals were made available  (lunch and dinner) for the days of the delay that occurred due to shows being cancelled in the two cities  (Karnataka and Delhi) the reasons for which were not in anybody's control, and involved increased security everywhere and many events were put on hold indefinitely during that year (April 2008). 

Being a humane company and understanding that the artists had lost two shows WOA went all out to use the time and promote all the artists in a massive way and left no stone unturned to promote the artists . We got them interviews and promotions on all National newspapers , put up Billboards and hoardings across Goa and filmed  a 4 part TV show documentary where the TV channel came to the hotel and interviewed each one of the artists and aired the program to add in the promotions of our artists in Goa and across India. We put together a press conference at a 4 star hotel in panjim where every top journalist was present and each one of them had a radio interview on a commercial FM radio network. All transportation was paid for by WOA Records and Oliver Sean during these 14 days, everyday, including refreshments and snacks when they were doing their press meets and interviews. A studio was made available for the artists to rehearse during this delay period. And all this was done for the WOA artists but unfortunately among the real artists were three rogues who took all these benefits got treated like stars, when they did not even deserve to get a spot on the streets or railway stations in any country, these were not musicians  and possessed no talent, they were con man and cheats and had no experience performing live on stage.  

Person who called himself  Xiren (Seer-rin) along with 2 other wannabes namely  Mana3 and DaveJ went on to run up huge  room service bills amounting to 2500 USD for alcohol, lunch, dinner etc. Xiren and Mana3 then proceeded to leave the hotel at night after 14 days of living it up at a 4 star hotel perhaps never in their life time so far had the good fortune to stay in a place like this! Having received all their promotions and Vh1 airplay of their rotten laughable videos and  national TV advertisements and ran away absconded NOT having played a single shown in breach of the contract they had signed with WOA for the tour . Due to their exorbitant bills they decided to slip away like thieves do.  The  hotel management was now asking them to pay for all their room service bills. The resort was threatening to lodge a complaint on Xiren, Mana3 and DaveJ and  the WOA management  too wished to do the same.   Oliver Sean  requested that it be put on hold for a day or two giving them the benefit of doubt.  To our shock we find out that  these artists had disappeared from their hotel rooms overnight with the help of a local traitor, who was employed by WOA International to help him and give him a platform to play on our WOA Music platform. This person's name is Lloyd Paul. 

We learned later that Xiren having slipped off in the night on the pretext of going to Mumbai for the 1st show that was in the tour schedule ran off to the airport and flew off to Colorado USA.  A complaint was lodged and the police were looking out for him having been informed by the hotel about Xiren absconding from his room without paying his bill. WOA Records on the request of Oliver Sean then cleared Xiren's and Mana3 bills for their Alcohol, Lobster Dinners, and Steak Lunches for 14 days. Xiren not only breached his contract by not performing for his shows but he actually went on to prove to everyone that he was a petty thief and fraud who came to India to represent Colorado USA and left in such a shameful way.  He  ruined his reputation here  if he ever had any and the reputation of the state he came from in America. Xiren (Seer-rin) cheated WOA Records and founder/musician and MTV Europe Music Awards nominee Oliver Sean, for thousands of dollars. There are  bills to prove this and police FIR's having been registered at the time by the hotel and WOA Records against these thieves Xiren and the other 2 acts. Loyd Paul too was summoned to the Police station for his hand in this mess and several other messes he created for WOA Records.

As of date WOA Records has filed a Defamation case against Xiren (Seer-rin) a con man and thief from Colorado USA, however this person is registered as a foreign national absconding without paying his dues. 

The lies now being spread by Xiren: This Colorado resident and scam artist is now using a pathetic LIE, he made up to gain sympathy and blatantly lying to trusting people and music lovers so that he can sell his album portraying a sorry pathetic picture of his 'OH HIS MANY SUFFERINGS' in India  when the fact is that he had a free 'all paid' holiday in India at the cost of  WOA and its platform.  This pathetic loser goes on to self release a song of all his 'sufferings'  in India and that he was so wronged by WOA Records and Oliver Sean that he was 'inspired' to write this album and people should feel sorry for him and 'help' him ' continuing to victimize himself  he goes on to add that WOA Records and WOA International is not a real person or real company.  This scam artist  Mr. Xiren  one of a kind con artist like no other ... has gone on to say that there is no real company called WOA Records and that there is no well known artist in India called Oliver Sean. Well if this is not laughable we wonder what is.  His so called blog filled with lies and the poor reader exposed to so much lies on and on goes further to state that he was put up in a 'little hole in Goa' for the duration of his stay and that 'everyone was rude to him and bad to him' and that he had to travel in horrible buses!!! all this a blatant lie a mere figment of his deranged mind.  Read on to know the real story and how this con man has been using lies  and more lies to gain media attention and using this to even con his poor trusting fans whose intelligence he has been disrespecting all this while. Surely no educated intelligent person in his/her right mind will believe his hogwash.

Please read WOA Records and Oliver Sean's  Reply to Con man Xiren's Blog Post: First We must mention here that The WOA Records India Tour is in its 6th year of production with 5 WOA RECORDS INDIA TOURS featuring artists from all over the world from 2008 till 2012! 

Coming to Xiren's bizzarr claim that 'Oliver Sean is not a real person' and that there is no famous artist called Oliver Sean! We are amused and we feel sorry for Xiren.  What exactly should one bother to say to this mentally deranged human? Its below our dignity to even bother to say anything to this .  The MTV Europe Music Awards Nominated  Oliver Sean is not only a well known successful breathing real human ...he is also kicking arse of cheats and losers like Xiren.  Oliver Sean the well known singer song writer composer and film maker is having the last laugh .  Oliver Sean is also a VOTING Member of the Grammy Awards since several years now and  A Vh1 Top10 artist many times over. 'Not only Oliver Sean is a well known  International STAR, he is a one of the  greatest  original MUSICIAN'  to quote some of his oldest fans. 

The scamster Xiren also went on to post pathetic badly written blogs  filled with lies about Jesus Aaron  an original talented artist who was also part of the WOA tour in 2008  and completed the tour successfully. 

Xiren, Mana3 and DaveJ were the 'bad apples' the dirty crooks from the USA  and Australia who tried to ruined  the WOA  tour for us and  other artists but  instead they ruined their own reputation and of their own states and countries they came from, they left disgracefully.  Not only did they try to cause problems and spread lies about the India Tour,  but they even  started attacking the other musicians for refusing to be part of their sinister plan to disrupt the rest of the shows that were taking place.  The ones who refused to join contribute to their criminal intentions to ruin the tour  had a good tour and since then have captured loyal fans  here in India who loved their music and performances. 

I think its time Xiren and his LIES about his so called "inspiration" for his album and the 'sufferings'  he says he experienced and 'the tragedy of his life' in 2008 be brought out to the public and the trusting people. Please be informed that  There was no tragedy! There was no Con!  there was no 'suffering' or 'victims'  as claimed by the con man XIREN and his comrades in crime. WOA Records India Tour was and is a legit tour we organise every year.  Authntic Original artists love the WOA Records India Tour for its platforms. Every year we get thousands of artists requesting a slot with us ! We have had amazing artists on the India Tour and we are proud of what we offer independent artists like no other Music tour platforms offer any where in the world.  We at WOA have promoted our artists and take care of  them, much  more than any other agency in the world ever does! We have gone on promotional tours when promoting artists  and we can guarantee you that some venues do not even offer you a free bottle of water. 

The India Tour started in 2008 is one of the biggest most well known tour in recent times. There are articles and documentaries done on the WOA Records India Tour that was conceptualized and till date produced by Oliver Sean and the wonderful WOA Records Team of musicians and music lovers who help us every year to organise this tour. We also have Vh1 who supports us every year and so does the Times of India and the Herald and The Hindu, Indian Express, Hindustan Times - all reputed newspapers. We even have the Government of Goa Art and Culture Department who supports the festival in Goa every year. And the Desousa  group of hotels who support us by giving artists accommodation in their 4 star hotel called Sun and Sand. Just contact any artist from the WOA Records India Tour who has not tried to cheat and rob WOA Records and Oliver Sean and they will tell you that this is one of the best independent artists tours in the world and there is no company that takes care of their artists better than WOA Records.

This press note is to all the wonderful fans and the supporters of WOA International and the WOA Records India Tour and Oliver Sean's precious fans, so that you know that this scam artist Xiren (Seer-rin) from Colorado USA  is cleverly trying to slander the good name of Oliver Sean and WOA Records and WOA International with his lies  on his website to gain sympathy and attract pity . The external victim lacks in talent buy is big in crooked clever tricks to lie to anyone who trusts him.  

We could have ignored this but WOA Records and Oliver Sean are making a point to all others like Xiren who think they can take advantage of good people like WOA Records and Oliver Sean to  beware, We will not let you get away with such lies and trying to slander our name! 

This press note is also targeted to every reviewer and fan of Xiren (Seer-rin) from Colorad, who has believed this man's story of being conned in India and how it inspired him to write this album and about the 'hell' he went through in India was the "inspiration" for his album. If you can beleive this lies then we have nothing to say to you just that you have been lied to as well. This person Xiren is a compulsive liar, desperate to be in the music industry  and so will resort to any scam activities not giving a though as to who he mess with.  He struggles because he lacks  Talent and is not an original musician but thinks he can be one by lying and cheating others.  

Oliver Sean and WOA Records spent thousands of dollars in organizing the tour and putting ads on Zee Cafe and Zee Studio and HCN (National TV Channels) and got Xiren and the other artists' videos playing on Vh1. So effectively Xiren paid WOA Records 12.50 US Dollars (Twelve Dollars) for an all expense paid TOUR AND HOLIDAY to India and he has the nerve to call WOA Records a con and scam! This pathetic Xiren is a fraud and is a disgrace to Colorado USA and the Independent music industry. He is a  fraud and a dangerous cheat who goes around recording cover songs and riding on names of well known artists  to get a higher google ranking. We feel sorry for this struggler with a horrific mind.

All you innocent trusting people who know him BEWARE of Xiren (Seer-rin) from Colorado USA.

Oliver Sean in Mexico today

The Oliver Sean interview on Al Aire 

"SI YO NO FUERA MÚSICO, NO SERÍA OLIVER SEAN"


Mexico - 15 Aug 2013 - El cantante de origen italo-portugués comenzó su carrera a los 17 años y desde entonces su música se ha visto influenciada de esfuerzo y los deseos de superación, un estilo fresco, armónico y letras con un alto sentido de honestidad.

En entrevista exclusiva para AL AIRE… la revista! Oliver Sean comentó que The Oliver Sean Band ha sido "una parte de mi viaje musical desde que tenía 13 años y comencé mi banda profesional". Sin embargo la agrupación ocupa distintas alineaciones de acuerdo al lugar donde se presenten, algunos de los integrantes han tocado al lado de Oliver por más de 15 años.

Sean describe su música como rock acústico con alma, donde se fusionan la música del mundo sutil y un espectáculo de alta energía.

 "Lo más difícil ha sido tratar de ser independiente y es por la clase de música que creo, música que no es comercial o que no sigue la tendencia actual. Porque cada canción que escribo se inspira en lo que he vivido, cada canción es una historia de mi vida".

A pesar de ello, el cantante asegura que lo más gratificante ha sido que su música sea amada por sus fans y que lo hayan colocado en el top 10 de MTV y Vh1, lo que después resultó en una nominación para los MTV Europe Music Awards y un álbum AVMAx del año. "Conseguir el reconocimiento de la industria de la música y demostrar que si haces buena música que viene de tu corazón, al final no importa si se sigue la última tendencia. Esto no puede pasarse por alto ya que la música comercial actualmente tiene un plazo marcado por su dinero, literalmente".

Oliver Sean ha estado en una extensa gira desde 2011 y ha viajado a través de Dubai, India y Estados Unidos, y acaba de terminar la gira por Reino Unido el 26 de marzo. El material de este tour culmina ahora en su nuevo álbum "Doing That ", que tiene previsto su lanzamiento en un par de meses.

Entre los planes que tiene para el resto de 2013 incluyen presentaciones en Canadá, California, Texas, Nueva York, Dubai, India y el Reino Unido también. No obstante, el foco principal será la producción del disco y un video musical de la canción mencionada. "Hemos estado filmando durante toda la gira por Reino Unido en febrero y marzo. El video se estrenará en Vh1 y diversas redes a nivel mundial. También estoy planeando hacer un viaje a América, especialmente en México en la última parte del 2013", aseguró con optimismo.

Por último, Oliver Sean compartió cuál es su conexión con nuestro país: "La canción que más influyó en mi carrera y el artista que ha sido mi más grande ídolo fue un artista que vino originalmente de México, su nombre era Ritchie Valens y la canción era la vieja canción popular mexicana 'La Bamba'. Vi la película sobre la vida de Ritchie Valens cuando yo tenía 10 años y hasta hoy creo que la película fue la mayor influencia en mi vida y en mi determinación para ser músico. Así que México juega un papel importante en mi viaje musical y realmente espero que pueda hacer un concierto allá y que algún día al público mexicano, también les guste mi música".

Oliver Sean UK Tour 2013 (Scotland Leg) review - Electric Harmony UK

Venue: Belushi's and Bannerman's

304954_10151202003270952_1313272204_n
I caught Oliver Sean at the beginning of his promo tour in the UK, doing a warm up session and then a larger gig in Edinburgh. He is one of those pop rock performers who sings about falling in love, summer romance and single mothers, while still retaining energy and enthusiasm throughout, even without his band. Due to little advertising and the fact that he is not quite mainstream in the UK as yet, he played to small crowds who perhaps knew that they were on to something special. The warm up gig was streamed on Google via iPad to dedicated followers in Dubai, Goa and New York, thus proving that it will just take a little time to become better known in the UK.

Oliver Sean's support included Ross Arthur, a local acoustic guitar player. Previously having played in Ayr and Glasgow, he blasted through 7 or 8 songs, most of which were a little samey and not my cup of tea, apart from the country and western style song near the end which provided a good change.

The next support act, a local three-piece grunge and blues fusion band called Fitzroy Soul, showed they had been playing the circuit for a while. Their grunge clothes combined with bluesy bass slides and unique vocals started the beginning of a memorable night. As the bassist concluded, "Its all just rock'n'roll."

Oliver played all the tracks from his album So Good, an unreleased song called 'Doing That' and some fun covers. 'Come On Move On' which is featured on the above mentionned album was dedicated to his uncle who sadly passed away. He had played bass guitar with George Harrison amongst several others. The catchy title track 'So Good', along with 'Movies' and 'Alone' show he doesn't need his band to put on a good live show. A man with big ideas, his musical influences are Status Quo, U2, AC/DC and The Police. He plans to open a Rock Lounge in London that will host acoustic sessions and runs WOA Records, which signs an upcoming act every month.

The support acts joined Oliver Sean and just his acoustic guitar on the stage at the end of the night. He will continue his tour, I expect to larger audiences, as his good quality music will only give you an uplifting experience.

Oliver Sean Review - 'Round Magazine

American music fans might not be familiar with Oliver Sean, but that's about to change. This international success and two-time MTV European Music Awards nominee is set to release a pack of new singles in the States, and they're going to open your ears.

Sean is Portuguese by birth, but grew up in Dubai as well as spending time in the UK, but his rock sensibilities are pure American. This worldwide influence shows itself in Sean's superlative collection of new tracks, which blend some of the best of good ol' fashioned rock-n-roll with subtle hints of world music elements to create an intoxicating new melange.

One thing that makes Oliver Sean special is the restraint with which he blends these elements together. Any rocker from the Beatles onwards can throw random sitars or Brazilian drums into a song for effect. In Sean's hands, they act as spice – punctuating moments, bringing them out, and then just as quickly segueing back to more traditional elements. There's a wonderful moment in his Latin-tinged power-lament Alone where for just a few bars, a Middle Eastern guitar comes in for a solo, before moving into a jazz transition that fades smoothly into an electric guitar solo that's pure 80s.

Oliver Sean also has a superlative voice for his songs, which he also writes himself. When he's pop, he has a clear, pure tone that reminds one of John Mayer or John Mellencamp. He's got a surprising amount of soul, though, and is constantly coming up with new vocal tricks to show off. His international hit So Good starts out with a Airoso bit of rhythmic patter that could have come off a Dire Straits single, but with modernized guitars and a hook on the chorus that's totally today.

The rule of the day for modern pop and rock seems to be plundering the past for inspiration and then repackaging it for a new audience. Far too often, bands risk losing their own identity under the weight of several generations. Sean, however, knows how to pick and choose just the right bits to pluck out, producing hugely entertaining pop that feels truly timeless.

If you need reassurance that good old guitar-led rock music isn't dead, Oliver Sean is exactly what you're looking for. When he hits the US shores, it means great things for American music fans.

BEWARE OF XIREN: The Real Con Man and Fraud

Hi Friends and Artists

This is a blog post in reply to a ridiculous blog posted by some person called Xiren. This is a story from 2008 that this person is still trying to use to get sympathy and now is using to sell his album that he has released saying that it is because he was so wronged by WOA Records and Oliver Sean that he was inspired to write this album and people should help him because Oliver Sean and WOA Records did him so much wrong and that we are not a real person or real company :-). He has gone on to say that there is no real company called WOA Records and that there is no well known artist in India called Oliver Sean :-)

I am writing this blog after insistence from my employees and my managers that I should retaliate to this. But I cant stop laughing about this guy - firstly WOA Records and the WOA Records India Tour is now in its 6th year of production - we have had 6 WOA RECORDS INDIA TOURS featuring artists from all over the world from 2008 till 2012! These artists from almost every country have emailed me directly saying thank you for the wonderful services and support we provide independent artists (I received another thank you email just yesterday) :-). So why on earth should we retaliate to something so absurd???

And coming to the fact that Oliver Sean is not a real person and that there is no famous artist called Oliver Sean....errrrr - what exactly should I say to this??? hahahaha - I guess the MTV Europe Music Awards nomination I got does not make me a real artist? And being made a VOTING Member of the Grammy Awards does not make me a real artist? And getting on the Vh1 Top 10 doesnt make me well known? And the fact that I have thousands of fans doesn't make me well known??? Well he said I wasn't famous - hell I dont think im famous either!!! - Al Pacino is Famous! Bon Jovi is Famous! Oliver Sean is only famous for his Mom and his adoring fans! ;-)

For the people who have not heard about WOA Records and W.O.A International - The Music Co - please read the thousands of testimonials and videos and articles on major newspapers and magazines and TV channel documentaries - ALL LISTED ON GOOGLE! to see if we really exist ;-)

Yeah this guy called Xiren was on our 2008 tour and we had a few shows that got cancelled so he and another 2 artists called Mana3 and Dave J started creating problems for WOA Records and our other artists during that time. We still got the other shows in order and took care of their accommodation and meals for 14 days in a 4 star hotel called the DeSouza group of hotels - a wonderful hotel - which these guys also have spoken such rubbish about. They also posted horrible blogs about Jesus Aaron who was also part of the tour and completed the tour successfully and has nothing but praise for WOA records and me (Oliver Sean).

What this Xiren is not telling everyone is that the REAL Reason he is so pissed off and talking such rot about us is the fact that we got HARD ROCK CAFE to come in as a venue partner for us at the last minute in 2008 when the other 2 gigs we had booked got cancelled. And everything was fine and everyone was happy BUT Hard Rock Cafe's event guy (Kaveer) then called ME and told me this and I quote "Oliver, dude we love Jesus Aaron and Sparky Quano and of course we need you because otherwise we wont get a crowd BUT we really dont like Xiren and Mana3 and that other guy who plays that ridiculous didgeridoo (they were referring to Dave J)" - Now this I told Xiren, Mana3 and DaveJ in the best and softest possible way one can tell someone about this and I also got these guys to perform at Not Just Jazz By The Bay in Pune and Mumbai because Hard Rock Cafe didnt want these 3 artists. Obviously they didn't take this well :) and who should they hate now? Well lets slander the name of WOA Records and Oliver Sean they said - we were easy targets for their frustrations! So they  slip out in the middle of the night without even coming forward about this face to face - no no, they slip out in the night, dont pay their room service bills and after they reach their respective countries they write to us and start slandering our name. So this is what these guys have never told anyone.

I think its time this guy Xiren and his LIES about his inspiration for his album and the con he says he experienced and the tragedy of his life in 2008 be brought out to the public - There was no tragedy! There was no Con! WOA Records India Tour was and IS a legit tour we organise every year, artists love the WOA Records India Tour and we get thousands of artists requesting a slot with us EVERY YEAR! We have had amazing artists on the India Tour who have gone off to do really well in this region and we have promoted them more than any other agency in the world ever does! The India Tour started in 2008 and is today one of the biggest tours of its kind in this region. There are articles and documentaries done on the WOA Records India Tour that was conceptualized and till date produced by Oliver Sean and the wonderful WOA Records Team of musicians and music lovers who help me every year to organise this tour. We also have Vh1 who supports us every year and so does the Times of India and the Herald and The Hindu, Indian Express, Hindustan Times - all reputed newspapers. We even have the Government of Goa Art and Culture Department who supports the festival in Goa every year. And the Desousa  group of hotels who support us by giving artists accommodation in their 4 star hotel called Sun and Sand.

This blog post is of course to you my fans and the supporters of WOA International and the WOA Records India Tour so that you know that this guy Xiren is just trying to slander my name and my company's name. However this blog post is also targeted to every reviewer and fan of Xiren who has believed this pathetic guys story of being conned by my company and me and how he says this "Tragedy" and "CON" inspired him to write this album and that how the hell he went through in India was the "inspiration" for his album - He is a Liar! LOL. Xiren was put up in a 4 star hotel room at the Sun Village and provided breakfast everyday for 14 days by WOA Records :-) and dinner was provided every night for the show days. He was put on a television shopw on HCN which is a satelliet channel based in Goa - a huge 4 part TV Show they did on the tour! He was put on India's ONLY fully International music FM radio station Radio Indigo, he was given press articles on press from all across India and was provided with PRESS CONFERENCE at the MANDOVI Hotel in Panjim, attended by journalists from every major news paper including the Associated Press and CNN IBN!  Oliver Sean and WOA Records did this for the artists on tour in 2008 and spent thousands of dollars in organizing this and putting ads on Zee Cafe and Zee Studio and HCN (National TV Channels) and got his video playing on Vh1. And all that this artist paid us was 25 USD for the Tour - from this 25 USD 50% was taken by Sonicbids! So effectively Xiren paid WOA Records 12.50 US Dollars for an all expense paid TOUR AND HOLIDAY to India and he has the nerve to call WOA Records a con and scam! This Xiren is a fraud and is using my name and my company's name to gain sympathy and a following. He is nothing but a fraud and a LIAR who goes around recording cover songs and riding on names of well known artists to get a higher google ranking LOL!

So I will end my blog post by saying thank you to the wonderful artists I have met through the various India Tours and I chalk this experience with the con man and liar caled Xiren and his friends as a one off experience and hope to God I never meet or interact with people like these - they give a bad name to us musicians!

The Hindu : FEATURES / METRO PLUS : Fusion feast WOA International Music Festival

The Hindu : FEATURES / METRO PLUS : Fusion feast

An article on India's most respected Newspaper The Hindu on the WOA International Msuic Festival and the WOA Records India Tour


Event A global music treat for Hyderabadis
I ndian Music lovers are leaving no stone unturned to welcome international music of any form. Be it a rock band, a famous international artiste, or fusion of various artistes, Indian Music fans have never let them down.

WOA International (World of Artist) Music Company has gone a step further in catering to the demands of music lovers across the globe. Their annual India tour promises some high spirited performances. Their do last week in Hyderabad was no different.

Hyderabad being their second destination after Goa, they had four artistes from different domains enthralling the crowd.

French Sax Maestro Eric Dulle, Germany's award-winning singer-songwriter Matthias Sturm, Reggae star from the US Jade Steel and his band, Metal's new emerging kings from Venezuela Overhate, Canadian adult contemporary artiste Viceroybill..

The artistes feel that W.O.A International has been working for years towards getting international independent music artistes together at the same time to India and give the Indian audiences an opportunity to hear their music live and experience great musical performances. This annual tour is a culmination of all those efforts with a bigger tour this year.

“Performing with artistes from various nationalities is not easy, but music is something which gets us closer and we love such fusion,” feels Abhishek, a resident DJ. The performance as expected drew immense support and interest as it served as a platform for all sorts of music lovers to come together and experience the fusion of music.

The development of the music industry has meant that bands are no longer stifled by lack of exposure, or limited in their options of distributing their music.

Determined artistes have not restricted themselves to their nations and the best music out there will get its chance to be heard by everyone, however we classify it.
