His debut in this field which was a successful impact on the music scene was by way of a series of performances on concert stages and also by special programmes broadcast live on then Radio Ceylon. He had the courage and creativity to move away from the conventional lanes of Sinhala music to introduce the calypso rhythm, which today is being followed by many mushroom bands. The celebrated and time honoured songs of Noel Ranasinghe, Hoiya Hoiya, Kandy Perahera, Welcome to Sri Lanka, Ayubowan which are contained in his latest CD, along with twelve other songs proves his commitment in originality. Catch his performance on Sirasa next Sunday at 8.30 am. |
