The Merrymaker’s Orchestrina is a completely original and unique alternative rock trio currently residing in New York City. The uncommon act is the brainchild of songwriter/guitarist/vocalist Ryan Shivdasani. Due to such a wide variety of musical styles exhibited by the band, it is difficult to categorize the music and songwriting into one definitive genre and style. Instead, as an avant-garde artist, Shivdasani prefers to refer to his artistry as an eclectic mix.
The trio consists of Shivdasani, assuming the lead role, and a new line-up of two other accomplished musicians: Sal A. Mander on drums and Daryl Chen on bass. The original two accompanying musicians are Danny Wolf on drums and Jack Redford on bass. All of the musicians have a complete understanding of Shivdasani’s musical direction which enhances the overall sound.
The Merrymaker’s Orchestrina’s new album “Act 3” was released in late April 2018. The official music video is forthcoming. The CD can be purchased at the group’s Bandcamp site, CDbaby, iTunes and other online music distribution portals.
