Career

Easy Wanderlings produced their debut album "As Written in the Stars" through crowdfunding and released it in August 2017. The album contained eight tracks and featured various guest artists. Until the release, the core band members kept their individual identities hidden from public domain.[2]

In September 2019, they launched a two-track concept EP titled "My Place to You."

Notable performances and recognition

Easy Wanderlings have been returning performers at annual multi-stage music festival NH7 Weekender in Pune, India, taking the stage for the first time in 2016 and again in 2017 and 2019.[3][4][5] They also performed at music festival VH1 Supersonic 2018, which was headlined by many international artists, including Major Lazer, Marshmello, and Sean Paul.[6]

The band was also invited and scheduled to perform at the SXSW Music Festival 2020 in Austin, Texas, USA.[7] However, the event was canceled due to health concerns surrounding the Coronavirus pandemic.[8]
