BBC Electric Proms: Next Stage
Tigerstyle played the BBC Electric Proms Asian Network gig on Saturday 28 October. Find out more.
Scottish Bhangra production duo Tigerstyle are two brothers trained in classical tabla, gurmat sangeet and various forms of punjabi folk music and instrumentation. Howeveer, they have a broad taste in contemporary music ranging from Hip Hop to Drum n Bass and Dance and it is this fusion of the traditional and contemporary that has fuelled their success.
The brothers have released a number of singles and albums and also taken on official remix duties for the likes of Lisa Maffia
and Raghav. After some legal wranglings with previous record companies, they recently signed to Nachural Records (the label that launched Panjabi MC) and are preparing a new debut single and album for worldwide release.
The success of Tigerstyle has seen them tour all over the world and they've shared stages with the likes of Talvin Singh, Nitin Sawhney, Gunjan, Asian Dub Foundation, Badmarsh & Shri, Truth Hurts, Panjabi MC, Future World Funk and Bobby Friction & Nihal on Radio 1.
Tigerstyle were selected for Next Stage by BBC Asian Network with Bobby Friction.
