Description

Grammy® Nominated Berklee Indian Ensemble is one of the hippest new acts to emerge from Boston. A global viral sensation with over 300 million streams, the Ensemble brings to fore a new Indian sound that melds classical, folk, Sufi, and contemporary Indian music, with influences ranging from progressive rock and jazz to Middle Eastern and African flavors. They are currently on their first America Tour this spring, and will be performing music from their debut album, Shuruaat, along with originals, fan favorites and some never heard before arrangements in LA on April 6th. This will be an evening filled with joy, laughter, celebration and of course, music, that you do not want to miss! Founded in 2011 by Annette Philip, the first Indian musician to serve as a faculty member at Berklee College of Music, the Ensemble went from producing sold-out live concerts with immersive technology, to headlining international festivals in North America and Asia, hosting global music workshops, and creating viral video content. The Ensemble was in such high demand globally that it organically transitioned into a professional band in 2021, marking the Ensemble’s 10 year anniversary. In 2022, the Ensemble released their first collection of transnational, genre-bending music on their hotly-anticipated debut album, Shuruaat (Hindi for ‘beginning’), featuring 98 musicians from 39 countries, marking a new chapter for this global music phenomenon.
