about giju:
GIJU An innovative world/pop music vocalist, producer and world-ranked Salsa dancer, Giju has awakened audiences with his versatile and energetic style since his youth. With a remarkable power to move the spirit, Giju is positioned as one of the most compelling and captivating performers to hit the Indian and world music scene. His first album, released in June 2007 by Raga-to-Rock Records, features six singles including the hot title Salsa track, �Rang Rangeeli�.
An amazingly gifted artist, Giju is also an accomplished Salsa dancer and choreographer. He is an original member of the �Salsamania Dance Company�, a world-ranked Salsa dance troupe known for its hypnotic performances � marked by high levels of speed and technical difficulty. As a lead member of Salsamania, Giju performs and competes throughout the U.S., Europe and Mexico.
The music GIJU produces and performs is truly original. The release of his first album, "Rang Rangeeli Yeh Duniya", marks the FIRST ever Hindi/Salsa cross-over album. That both the associated music video (viewable on YouTube), and the new album have been so well received, is a strong and positive indication that his unique style has made a mark on the Pop / World Music lovers across the globe.
The Indian Media has referred GIJU as the "Ricky Martin of India" - so if you like the way his music makes you feel...chances are you'll enjoy Rang Rangeeli and the eclectic mix my album offers!!

band members:
I am a solo vocalist and professional Salsa dancer. When I'm doing a live show for my music, there are a number of outstanding musicians I depend on, and who are located in various parts of the U.S. and around the globe. We come together to create lively small, medium to large full-blown on-stage performances.
The primary group I perform with for Salsa dancing is the professional dance company I've been with for six years, Salsamania - the world-ranked competitive company based in the SF Bay Area, CA.
We tour the world sharing our love of Salsa through performance, competition and teaching.
