Hello Everyone!

"Without Music, Life would be a Mistake" - Friedrich Nietzsche

The Audience couldn't have enough of them, and they had to extend their Concert of 2 Hours to 4 Hours Approximately.

Joshua was a Musical Disciple of Ustad Usman Khan and Osho, both of who were Great Sitar Players.

Joshua's Biggest Inspiration was Osho.
He said,"In the Presence of this Man with the Long White Beard, Eyes as Deep as the Ocean and a Strong Sense of Humour, he came in touch with the art of the Inner Music-Silence. This was really coming Home".

The Band Tours for 10 Months in an Year, and Improvises in the Studio for 2 Months.

His Parents gave him the name Joshua, and he added "Prem" to it, dropping the Family Name, to remind him of the Essence of "Love".
(Prem Literally means Love in Hindi)
