Telugu singer, Italian musicians to perform in Hyderabad

Hyderabad : Telugu rock singer-songwriter-composer Alluri and Italian musicians Paolo Raineri, Roberto Dragonetti, Davide Arzuffi and Pietro Ubaldi will perform here on August 18.

Musicians Ranga and Murli from Hyderabad will also be a part of the concert.

"I am looking forward to playing on August 18. I will be playing 12 songs from my album 'O Katha: Tales of This Telugu Man'. I had written this album three years ago when I was suffering from an identity crisis after having exclusively written songs only in English," Shriram Alluri, based in London, said in a statement.

"I have played these songs in England, France and Estonia. So singing these songs in Hyderabad finally is an absolute thrill. There will be some old Telugu covers too," he added.

He has also worked with Grammy Award-winning producer Tommaso Colliva on the single "Evari Kosam".
