Bhangra is a hugely popular type of dance music, which meshes traditional Punjabi songs and drumming with electronic rhythms, creating a modern twist on old Indian and Pakistani celebratory performance.

Multiple percussive instruments, guitar and frontman Dildar’s honey-drenched vocals create a sound that’s straight off the streets of a Bollywood movie; this is helped in part by the group’s flamboyant showmanship.

Every show comes with an introduction to Bhangra dance and everyone is included, giving their gigs the atmosphere of a wedding or family party.
