ZAMEER is a Alternative Rock band started in the year 2021, which covers and performs anything that revolves around Rock.Having an Open approach to all kind of genres, and free to experiment and incorporate the Rock style to different styles of music, focusing on the depth and meaning of the song and presenting it in their own way.
 
It started with just the lead Vocalist of the Band Chinmaya who was in his pursuit of music journey and gradually came across wonderful musicians and individuals who eventually became part of the band. The name Zameer was given by Chinmaya himself. Zameer means Conscience, and he being a deep thinker and having a philosophical approach to life, wants to reflect that with their music. The story of each member is unique in its own way with their own struggles and journeys.
 
The vision of the band can be put simply by the words of the Lead Vocalist and founder Chinmaya himself, who says " ROCK ISN'T JUST A GENRE, ROCK IS A FEELING". There are rules and there are rules to break the rules,and then there's artistic freedom. And we are not going to be defined by a set of Rules that defines Rock, rather we are free souls who want to explore the music in a more limitless approach.

Age: 15

He is the lead guitarist of the band, and also happens to be the youngest member of the band. He is currently in class XI. He Started learning guitar at a very young age and Having been introduced to Rock and Heavy music very early in his life, he knew where his calling was.  He is always lost in his own world, trying out stuff on his guitar and listening to his favorite music.

Music is certainly a mean of escapism for him. He likes performing, and he does indeed feel like Leonardo DiCaprio standing at the Titanic’s bow. The Titanic being the pleasure that performing and playing gives him. Cool thing is there is no iceberg to sink said ship in the whole wide sea. This paragraph maybe considered a digression from professionalism, but it’s just him being true to himself, much like how he's true to music.

Here's what he has to say :  I want to drive and explore the Rock and metal culture more profoundly " - "Be thankful to the people who got you into something you love, and imagine where would you be right now if you were oblivious to the treasure your passion upholds."

"Music is something i found always as a burning desire in me......................." - Naitik.

He happened to be a guitar player first but was quick to get hold of the bass and learn it and do it for the band.

"The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of music vary according to culture and social context....................." - Korada Chandra Harsha.
