Di tahun 1984 tiba tiba melejit kembali band lawas yang setia membawakan repertoar The Beatles, Bharata Band. Band yang telah terbentuk sejak dasawarsa 60-an ini kembali menjadi sorotan publik ketika mereka didaulat tampil dalam acara “Beatles Belum Mati”.

Khalayak Jakarta seolah tersihir dengan lagu lagu The Beatles yang dilantunkan Bharata. Walaupun Bharata tampil bukan dengan formasi asli, tapi penampilan mereka mendapat aplause luar biasa. Mungkin karena kehadiran Abadi Soesman (vokal, gitar, keyboard) dan Jelly Tobing (drum).

Tak sedikit yang berkomentar, energi bermusik Bharata kian meletup dengan masuknya Abadi Soesman dan Jelly Tobing . Ini memang tak bisa dimungkiri. Baik Abadi dan Jelly memang memiliki kemampuan bermusik diatas rata-rata. Sama sama komunikatif dan enerjik. Sejak itulah Bharata kemudian banyak tampil di berbagai konser lagi setelah cukup lama terbenam dalam kevakuman.

Bharata sendiri terbentuk bersamaan dengan munculnya Koes Bersaudara, di saat hampir seluruh anak muda Indonesia kerasukan demam The Beatles. Bharata sendiri merupakan akronim dari keempat personilnya yaitu Bambang ( drum), Harrie (bas,vokal), A.Suharlie (gitar, vokal) dan Tato (rhythm gitar, vokal). Bambang, Harrie dan Tato adalah bersaudara kandung.

Ditahun 2009 ini Bharata Band kembali lagi setelah 20 tahun vakum melakukan konsert yang bertajuk “Remember The Beatles with Bharata Band’84 Live Concert 2009″ berlangsung pada tanggal 18 Desember 2009 di Gran Melia Hotel Ballroom Jakarta.
