The Bombay Royale is an 11-piece Australian band fronted by singers Parvyn Kaur Singh and Shourov Bhattacharya and led by Andy Williamson. The band performs original music that blends funk, disco and pop music with the classical and folk music of India, much like the soundtracks of 1960s and 1970s Bollywood movies. The band was conceived by musical director Andy Williamson who also plays saxophone and flute.

"The Bombay Royale are like your favourite lover - wild, electric, addictive - and we just need more."

"...the respect for the music against the all ‘round silliness makes it even more enjoyable."
"'Rising With The Sun' offers a brief respite from the raucous party jams, before Angus's elephantine trumpet squeals wreck the peace."
The band's solid, gut-punching grooves effortlessly bring the crowd under their control.
But delivered with Jones’ energy, charisma and dynamism it was nothing less than a life affirming as she danced.
She has found an excuse to become who she really is and express the freedom of her character in everyday life.
