The Surrogate Band shares a stage with The Watson Brothers
An unassuming audience was given a magnificent display of musicianship by The Surrogate Band on Friday on the rooftop of The Enchanted Hotel in Banani. Organised by TNR Lifestyles Ltd, an event management firm that promotes lifestyle trends targeted towards the youth, the event titled 'Illusion with The Surrogate Band' was a perfect weekend experience for the audience.
Members of the band are Neville, Tasmia, Gibran, Amit, Farsim and Bartman. The members switched their instruments multiple times across the event, showcasing their ability to handle an array of musical instruments.
"Some people say The Surrogate Band always play the same list of songs. But it's going to be different this evening," Tasmia declared. The song list that evening was greatly different from the band's previous performances.

Guest performers sang Harry Styles and Angus and Julia Stones songs. The band performed 'With or Without You' by U2, a must-perform song for them. The whole crowd sang along.
The Watson Brothers' Shakib Chowdhury and Arafat Kazi were among the audience as well. Towards the end of the show, Shakib was requested to come on stage and perform 'Comfortably Numb' by Pink Floyd. Following that, Arafat went on stage to play the drums behind Shakib as they performed two The Watson Brothers originals, 'Rang' and 'Protibad'. Nostalgia swept through the crowd with the last two performances.
