Event Information
experience from Dehradun! Now ready to rock your town
Chick ’N’ Roll is Dehradun’s much-loved classic rock band with a truly diverse repertoire
ranging from The Beatles to the Doors and Elton John with everything else thrown in
between that rocks — whether heavy or soft.
With a strong following of rock music lovers of all ages who like to shake a leg, the
talented six-member band performs regularly at the Basque Garden Project
amphitheatre in Dehradun, and is now taking bookings for other cities.
Chick ’N’ Roll’s repertoire includes well-known standards from the 60s, 70s and 80s,
good old singalongs, guitar-driven rock n’ roll dance numbers, edgy jams and laid-back
psychedelic rock. In March 2024, the band delivered a standout and high-profile tribute
to The Beatles on George Harrison’s birth anniversary.
Chick ’N’ Roll are:
Vijit Singh Malik (vocals, rhythm guitar): A frequent performer on stages across both
India and Dubai, performing both individually as well as with leading bands, Vijit is an
adept practitioner of classic rock, blues, country rock and folk rock. His repertoire draws
heavily on The Beatles, The Eagles, The Grateful Dead, Credence Clearwater Revival,
Eric Clapton, Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Simon & Garfunkel, America and many, many
more.
Dipankar De Sarkar (fretless bass, vocals): Having moved back to India from London
some years ago, Dipankar has recorded several CDs with London-based folk-rock and
jazz fusion bands, including a CD of original rock songs with the late great English jazz-
rock drummer, Jon Hiseman of Colosseum.
Sanjay Aggarwal (drums): Sunny is literally the power-house and driving force behind
Chick ’N’ Roll. A percussionist since his school days at Sanawar, he plays the drums,
tabla and dholak. Trained by Nandon Bagchi in Calcutta, he was part of The Backsides
and Time Machine. His musical influences span Indian classical, jazz, and rock & roll.
Vimarsh Pandita (lead guitar, vocals): Guitarist and singer-songwriter, Vimarsh has
been a member of Peach!, a well-established and popular indie band in Dehradun. He
has written and recorded songs with Peach! as part of their first EP Confluence which
was released 2 years back. His love for classic rock led him to Chick 'n' Roll. He enjoys
listening to The Beatles, Sufjan Stevens, Eric Clapton and Bob Dylan.
Sandeep Singh (piano, keyboards): Sandeep is a music composer, arranger, teacher
and recordist with his very own recording studio and music school. He’s done his Trinity,
of course. He’s a veritable one-man band: plays the piano, keyboards, guitar, drums
and tabla! Favourite genres are rock, blues, jazz and pop.
Sarthak Aggarwal (drums, percussions): Our young drumming sensation! With
rhythmic prowess well beyond his years, Sarthak plays the drums, cajon and
tambourine. His musical beats promise to leave an indelible mark on any audience! He
started drumming at the age of 3, and has passed several Trinity grades. His music
tastes include The Who, Queen, Led Zep, and Fleetwood Mac among others. His
favourite genres span vintage rock, pop, alt rock and are ever growing."
