A year after he introduced bands, SurFira and Indie Routes, singer Kailash Kher will launch two new musical outfits — Sparsh and ARdivine — on his birthday on July 7. While the former is a five-member rock band (vocalist Soham Pathak, bassist Ajinkya Jadhav, lead vocalist Rahul Bhavsar, drummer Virendra Kaith and keyboardist Nikhil Pachpande), ARdivine comprises seven musicians (vocalists Abhishek Mukherjee and Rachit Agarwal, bassist Rahul Deo, percussionist Aditya Dhekale, drummer Jaynesh Parle, keyboardist-harmonium player Shivahari Ranade and lead vocalist Neelab Nath) who specialise in film and Sufi music.
