Curve Tapas Bar – promoting excellent live bands weekly – presents Proteus from Hong Kong with none other than Umara Rifky on vocals and led by legendary Sri Lankan musicians Dylan Lye and Hassan Musafer along with Adonis D Jesus returning to Curve after last year.

The band will be performing at Curve Tapas Bar from 15 February to 11 March every Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.

Proteus has an exciting line up of musical talent with Lye, a guitarist who plays bass as well as lead and a synonymous name with the jazz aficionados of Sri Lanka, along with drummer Hassan Musafer (both of Legendary Jetliners fame). Dylan has absorbed the talents of Howard Roberts, George Benson, Nathan East and Marcus Miller and also chips in with vocals. Adonis d Jesus is an extraordinary keyboardist, a great musician/composer and handles all the musical arrangements.

A lady with a golden voice Umara Rifky is the lead singer of the group, rated as one of the top vocalists Sri Lanka has produced. She has performed at most of the leading hotels in Hong Kong and has won many international music awards in Europe and Asia.

Proteus has enjoyed years of success with tremendous musical excellence in Hong Kong and performs popular hits from the ’60s to today’s current chart toppers along with jazz, Latin, R&B and mood music for one’s listening pleasure.

Proteus has performed at exclusive membership clubs, corporate and celebrity events in addition to overseas gigs in Singapore, Macau and China in star class hotels.

This opportunity for the Sri Lankan audience to enjoy Proteus has been made possible by Cathay Pacific Airways which flew in the band for this performance at Curve Tapas Bar.
