Wingspread is a group of seven musicians working on self-composed fusions, primarily between Indian Classical/folk and jazz-rock, while occasionally delving into other subgenres of rock, like blues-rock and metal over Indian vocalizations. Annie Chuck is a trained Indian Classical singer, and also sings and composes within the spheres of western rock and jazz-rock. The group’s songs are majorly sung in Indian languages and Indian genres, while the instrumentation is fusion jazz-rock, where the musicians explore Indian musical techniques over western instruments. They occasionally use Indian instruments like the Dotara, Ektara, etc to intensify the ‘hybrid’ motif of their band. They are based in Manchester and have performed around the North-West, with one of their notable performances being the Manchester International Festival in 2019.
