Punjabi vocal powerhouse Rashmeet Kaur will headline the night with her unique, earthshaking style. She has been credited in songs by notable names such as Lazer, Diplo, and Nucleya.

British-Bengal musician Tara Lily’s debut album Speak In The Dark fuses jazz, electronica, trip-hop, and alternative R&B with classical Indian music. The ringleader of the festivities DJ Rekha joins this magnetic line-up, transcending the sonic borders of hip-hop, dancehall, and diasporic grooves in a set featuring an array of percussionists, dancers including the iconic KalaSher, the signature Bhangra dance lesson, and other special guests.
