JAKARTA - Like agreeing with his own song, Yang Patah Tumbuh Yang Hilang Berganti, Banda Neira (BN) carries a new spirit in music. Eight years since declaring their disbandment, they are back working now.

The release of the single Tak Apa Akui Tired of reviving the unit that has been missed since disbanding in 2016. Ananda Badudu is now partnering with Sasha as a new vocalist.

Ananda as the founder and personnel of Banda Neira revealed the reason for Sasha's election as a new family member. Apart from being a backing vocal several times, he also feels that chemistry is running in the creative process.

"I want to know musically, when writing songs together, do we match?" Ananda said in an official broadcast received by VOI, October 28.

"After inviting Sasha, the progress of writing the song was much smoother, so I decided to invite her to join as a vocalist," he said.

Without compromising respect for the previous vocalist, Sasha hopes to continue Banda Neira's journey in the future. He emphasized that he was not a replacement for Rara who helped raise the name of BN.

"I'm joining here to continue what Rara is doing, not to replace him. Continuing with new songs in the also-new round for Banda Neira," said Sasha.

It's OK to admit that I'm tired of the steps that have been prepared by Banda Neira with their new phase. They will release their album Growing and Become the third album bag. The album is scheduled to be released on November 1st.
