Introduction of Payungi






Began from hanging out at the music community in Tasikmalaya, West Java, we realized that we had the same perception and passion on music. That's why finally we decided to performed a group with our own philosophy.

We called this group as PAYUNGI, based from our performance, creativity, and talent that each personnel have.

"What's the meaning of 'PAYUNGI'?"
We took it from the word 'payung' in Indonesian language (payung = umbrella), when Sundanese people called 'payung' as 'pajeng'. 'Pajeng' in Indonesian language can be transferred as 'laku' or 'laris', at general can be said as "payung is immortal through time".

We hope that phylosophy will guides PAYUNGI transform to becoming a big band in the future, when another goal is that PAYUNGI will be known and accepted by all of the music lovers in Indonesia.
