Treble Puns is a duo from Bangalore. Guitar and drums sit at the centre, with synths, samples and guest voices around them. The music is complex and restless: post-rock that drifts into progressive structures, electronica and Indian classical phrasing, and always finds its way back to a melody.The songs look at the things most of us are too polite to say out loud: the pressure to be happy, the performance of being seen, the quiet absurdity of an ordinary day.The masks take our faces out of the picture. What remains is the music, and the room it is played in. Look closely at the room.

Life is a series of terrible puns. We set them to music.

Treble Puns belongs in beautiful places: hotel lounges, private clubs, gallery openings, heritage venues, brand evenings and festival stages. The music is ambient enough to sit beneath a dinner conversation and big enough to take over a room when the room is ready for it.We are two musicians with a compact rig, so we fit where a full band can't. We travel light, set up quickly and play to the room, whatever its size or sound limit. We arrive on time, and dressed better than the occasion requires.
