Early Years
Vin Sinners was formed by Chennai-based, Indian Vin Nair who decided to make a comeback to music after 15-year sabbatical. Vin had toyed with the idea of forming a band for years after his earlier band called Acanthus disbanded in 1994. Vin Nair had earlier been a part of the church choir at Montfort Higher Secondary School in South India and it is there that he did most of his singing.
In 2009, Vin was inspired by the Indian movie called 'Rock On!!' that depicted a Corporate professional making a comeback to the music scene after a few years away.
However, it was in 2010 that Vin met Pakistan born Atif Ali who owns and runs a production studio called Playback Lounge in Dubai's JLT area. On May 23, 2010, Atif and Vin decided to begin work on one song as an experiment. The song called 'The Wise Man' was written by Vin in memory of his late Father and the production of the song was ready in less than 3 days. Atif and Vin began work on a few more songs along with the support of Tabraiz Haroon (Mr T) on keyboards.
First album: An Element of Surprise
'An Element of Surprise' was launched on Dec 9, 2011 in Dubai.
India Tour February 2013
In July 2013, Vin Sinners’ first album was released in India via digital music platform artistaloud.com. This coupled with the band’s first video release on YouTube for the song 'Return to Solace' saw the band’s popularity in India increase. Soon after playing at the Gulf Bike Festival in October 2012, Vin Sinners announced that they had begun work on their new album and were also planning an International tour.
Vin Sinners toured India with 2 shows each in Mumbai and Chennai. The concerts were received well.
In December 2013, Vin Sinners announced that their new album would feature former Iron Maiden front-man Blaze Bayley on a track called ‘Open The Box’. The track features both Vin Nair and Blaze Bayley on vocals.
A Mighty Black Box and signing to Universal Music India
On February 19, 2014, Universal Music India signed a 3-year contract with the band and it became the first UAE based rock band to be signed by a major label.
