Bandhada - Bandhada (1984)

Guitarist Carlos CHUNG founded the first incarnation of BANDHADA in 1983 in Santiago, Chile. Backed by fellow students of Faculty of Arts of the University of Chile, they shaped music which was a mixture of jazz fusion and progressive rock close to CAMEL which was shown on their self-titled debut in 1984. In 1985, keyboard player Alfonso CARRERA FEELEY leaves the band to join a group called CINEMA, and for the better half of the 80's BANDHADA's music strays more in a quite sucesful pop direction which lasted up to 1991.

Inspired by the re-release of their 1984 record by Mylodon Records in 2005, three of it's original members who are currently residing in Los Angeles (CHUNG, FEELEY and bassist Philip CLARK) have reformed the group once more to release another album in 2009 that returns to their original roots. In this new line-up, Dean McCALL replaced the old drummer Eduardo CORREA and Carlos DOMINGUEZ was playing the saxophone.
