Formed in the year 1980, two leading bands of Goa, The Squad and The Vandals decided to merge together and form one band. Twenty years and hundreds of successful shows later, with a huge fan following, the Syndicate is still going as strong as ever.

With the arrival of the Syndicate, Goan audiences witnessed for the first time an emphasis on sound and lighting. They were the first to give a modern and western dimension to the music scene in Goa. All this however took some amount of struggle and sponsors were not easy to garner. They play all kinds of music from jazz to rock and are able to satisfy the crowd to a great extent.

Today their name commands a lot a respect and admiration. People are willing to pay a heavy price to get the Syndicate. During October-April season, they command a figure of 15,000 and for the New Years dance, they demand and get a whopping 3 to 4 lakh rupees per show.

Kudos to them for their achievements. Contact info will be available shortly.
