For touring artistes, The Backline ticks the instruments column

They are like the stylistic four-on-the floor beat on drums. With their unique entrepreneurial journey by launching a pioneering musical start-up called The Backline, the four enterprising musicians- Clincin Chacko, Gladson Raj, Anuraj Pattayil and P.C. Prasanth- have set a benchmark in providing a wide variety of flagship musical instruments to touring artistes in south India.

“Our start-up is equipped to arrange musical instruments and related sounds for 10 concerts at a time anywhere in south India. The Kozhikode and Bengaluru hubs have already facilitated over 30 concerts, attended by celebrity singers like Sunidhi Chauhan, in different parts of south India,” says Clincin,an IT engineering graduate from Kozhikode who has over seven years of experience as a drummer with over 24 bands.

He says that the demand for musical instruments has been steadily on the rise as artistes require flagship instruments for their shows without worrying about their safe shipping.
