Susmit Sen ready to start new chapter in life

After his 23-year-long association with Indian Ocean, Susmit Sen's decision to part ways with the famous rock band may have come as a shock to his fans but the guitarist says he is looking forward to begin a new innings in life.
Susmit, who along with late Asheem Chakravarty had founded Indian Ocean in 1990, has now moved ahead with his new band 'The Susmit Sen Chronicles'.
"I am happy to move forward with my life and career. I have a deep connection with Indian Ocean and I know that I will miss going on-stage with the band but this is part and parcel of a musician's life. I don't think there should be any sadness about my decision to quit," Susmit told PTI.

Susmit has already come out with an individual album - Depths of the Ocean- where the compositions bear his trademark and which has his unique style of guitar playing.
He is collaborating with a bunch of musicians- Anirban Ghosh, Nikhil Vasudevan, Amit Sharma, Sudhir Rikhari, Rajiv Raja and old friend Gyaan Singh (of Mrigya fame) and creating music with them as 'The Susmit Sen Chronicles'.
"The new band has more synergy, new melodies. I have completed the album and I am very happy with the end product, I am very happy with the people I am working with. And I hope that the audiences will be as generous in their appreciation and support to The Chronicles as they will continue to be with Indian Ocean," Susmit said.
