About Adil Manuel

Music entrepreneur. Passion & Analytics driven. Collaboration & inclusivity are at the core of my work ethics. These have fuelled great creative journeys for me over the years. Strengths in project management & creative entrepreneurship. I have been a part of the Indian music scene for well over 20 years. Starting in the late 90's, from playing with pop and rock bands to studio/compositional work in the early and also doing session work with Indi-Pop icons like Silk Route and Indian Ocean to forming & spearheading critically acclaimed collaborative outfit "Adil & Vasundhara" to curating bespoke music collabs & performances to producing, I have pretty much covered all corners. My network in the music industry helped me get some very interesting projects and this began to bring in work from the corporate sector as well - Clients like Google, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Porsche, etc. Some of the artists/bands I have worked with are Vishal Dadlani, Clinton Cerejo, Mohit Chauhan/Silk Route, Shubha Mudgal, Loy Mendonsa, Ranjit Barot, Shaan, Indian Ocean, Harshdeep Kaur, Noori, Thermal and a Quarter, Merlin D'Souza, Rajeev Raja, Neeti Mohan, Shalmali Kolgadé, HipHop artist ShahRule amongst others. I have composed ad jingles for Ceat, ICICI, ABP news, as well as done projects with Vishal Punjabi/The Wedding Filmer. Hence, a music entrepreneur and a maverick.
