SHILLONG, Nov 13: Shillong’s iconic blues-rock band, The Great Society, is set to make a comeback after 30 years, with an exclusive performance at the Cherry Blossom Festival. The reunion will feature the legendary Lou Majaw alongside Rudy Wallang, Ferdinand Dkhar, and Keith Wallang, marking the first time the band has come together on stage in decades. They are scheduled to perform on the festival’s opening day — that is the 15th of November.
The Great Society, founded by Meghalaya’s pop rock icon Lou Majaw, is celebrated for its blues-rock sound and soulful performances that have influenced Indian indie music.
