As the youngest of four children, Debashis grew up in Kolkata, India in a warm and profoundly music-loving family; within an outsized aura of arts and crafts, music remained the bedrock of life in his family. Debashis grew up appreciating and embedding himself into many genres of music, including commercially popular songs representing the “golden years of Indian music.” He and his 23-month older sister Shyamali lived and breathed music, singing songs together at virtually every social gathering they found themselves in.



Throughout high school and also while in college at Jadavpur University, Debashis (known as “Deba” among his friends) was happy taking requests to sing popular commercial film songs regaling friends and family at every opportune moment while traveling and at all social gatherings.

Debashis has deep gratitude for the gift he has in retaining the quintessential elements (sur, taal, lay) of any song he is drawn to, and is remarkably adept at preserving all of their minutiae. This, he has noticed, helps him not only sing songs well, but enables him help others hone their singing skills.

Fast forward to 2023: Debashis has been living in greater Boston, Massachusetts, where he has been enjoying singing more than ever, with his singing buddies, often professionally in local establishments and events. About a year ago, as ordained by the universe, through a close singer friend (Kaizad Patel), Debashis came under the tutelage of Pandit Amit Chakraborty, the Hindustani Classical Maestro of the Patiala Gharana. Debashis feels music has been thoroughly transformative for him, the “north star” and the “raison-d-etre” in his life. This makes Debashis eager to invest just as much effort and planning in helping other aspiring singers realize their potential, while continuously sharpening himself as a singer.

Together with Pandit Chakraborty, his dear friends, Subhra Biswas and Kevin Bleau, he is blissfully immersed in Hindustani music and providing practical, focused voice culture and other aspects of singing training to aspiring singers. Debashis has had great success in motivating individuals to shed their initial performance anxiety, converting that energy into measurable musical skill development and becoming the best versions, these aspiring singers can become themselves.

Kevin Bleau is a Boston-based composer, arranger, musical theater writer, and performer. His arrangements have been performed by artists like Crystal Gayle, the Platters, and Broadway divas Michele McConnell and Marni Raab. As Staff Arranger for the U.S. Air Force Band of Liberty, he arranged over 100 popular songs, reaching over a million audience members since 1998. His works have been featured by the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra chamber musicians and at Boston's Hatch Shell. Bleau has received grants from Berklee College of Music, the International Horn Society, and the NY State Council of the Arts. He directed new musicals and taught for 15 years at Berklee.

Kevin’s satirical COVID-19 musical CORONA BROs won honorable mention at the 2021 London Worldwide Comedy Short Film Festival. Bleau's recent musical Roswitha, co-written with David Schrag, will receive a concert performance in 2025. Awaken Youth, written for the Chinese boy band Awaken-F, played to thousands in Shanghai. His fifteen-minute musical, The Mission, was performed at International Cringefest and Birth of a Musical Festival. If You Want My Body, his first full-length musical, received readings at Berklee, supported by a Recording Grant and Faculty Fellowship. His screenplay, Fine Tuning, was a finalist in the Writemovies.com competition.

Kevin holds an M.A. from Eastman School of Music and a B.M. from Oberlin College Conservatory, and resides in Milton, MA. For more, visit kevinbleau.com
