Rajat writes, sings, plays the guitar and synthesizers and produces for his solo project Silver and Gold.
Rajat was born in the city of Calcutta (Kolkata) in the eastern region of India in the September of 1973. Rajat's introduction to music dates back to early 1980 when his parents exposed the 6 year old to Indian classical style of singing. Years of training laid the foundations of the principles of music, however, it was not until 1988 that Rajat met up with like-minded individuals in school and started a rock band.
Fast forward to 1996, Rajat and his mates release their first self-financed studio album "Theoretical Nightmare" a track from which, called "For soon" became a popular hit in 1996-7 in India and received significant plays and reviews by MTV India.
Following completion of graduate studies Rajat arrived in New York in 2004 and set out to write and record new material for Silver and Gold. There has been no looking back ever since and Silver and Gold is all set to release it's first EP "Turnaround" in the winter of 2006.
