Yes, it has certainly come as a surprise to bassist Benjy Ranabahu when his new band, Inner Vision – just a few weeks old – is already being sought after. His original plan was to take on the local showbiz scene towards the end of May, or early June, but music lovers thought otherwise; they wanted immediate action and Benjy is ready to do the needful. This Friday, 02nd May, Inner Vision will light up the scene at the famous The Irish Pub, in Colombo.
It will be action from 8.00 pm to 12 midnight and Benjy says they are going to make it a happening scene for those who turn up at The Irish Pub this Friday. In the meanwhile, Inner Vision has secured the services of Sanjeewa Uyanahewa to handle the keyboards, and the rest of the members are Upali Fernando (lead guitar), Lelum Ratnayake (drums), Viraj Cooray (guitar), Nish Peiris (female vocalist) and the dynamic Benjy doing the needful on bass.
The plus factor is that with the exception of Benjy, the others are also known for their singing capabilities. In fact, last week’s exclusive article about Inner Vision, in The Island (22nd April), generated a lot of interest among music lovers and several well-known local performers. The famous Rukshan Perera had this to say: “Many familiar faces with lots of talent.
Wishing Benjy, and Inner Vision all the very best.”.
