‘Live at
Aloft Hotels’ may be a very familiar phrase to a lot of travelers and locals
who have visited Aloft Hotels in the United States. It is an event that acts as
a platform to showcase the hottest upcoming artists and bands once every week
at their signature W XYZ Bar across Aloft Hotels in the United States.
After a
very impressive response in the United States; on 28th June, 2013,
this highly successful event ‘Live at Aloft Hotels’ was launched at Aloft, Bangalore.
This is among the four Aloft hotels in the whole of Asia-Pacific to host this
signature series of live music performances.
Event - 'Live at Aloft Hotels'
The
opening act on 28th June was a performance by ‘Little Wings’ with
Herbert Paul on the guitar and vocals, Gerard Roy on bass and Raj Sampath on
drums. Their music seemed to be heavily influenced by Jimi Hendrix, Eric
Clapton and more. Every week, come Friday and you will see a different band
playing different genres of music.
As for
‘Little Wings’; I must say, “The band did a good job performing live and to
second my view was my guest who accompanied me to this launch event.”

serves a limited but interesting selection of cocktails along with a good

My
personal pick from the mixes was the mojito – made strong on request to my
liking, the Fiji Lychee cocktail and a name I do not recollect but the mix
contained whiskey, orange juice and tonic water.
