In a couple of hours I set out on the longest and possibly the most interesting trip I have been on yet! I am going to be traveling with ‘The Raghu Dixit Project‘ on a 7 city tour of the North East of India as part of the Roots Music Festival. We are traveling with 4 other bands, Too Late Lucy from the UK, Dub LFO from Israel and 2 musicians from the North East, Guru Rewben Mahsanghwa and Warklung.
We are playing at the following venues over the month -

It has always been my dream to travel to the North East, right from when Sashi in college described the place to me. This is one trip I shall not want to miss for the world!
I shall do my best to keep in touch, but expect me to pop up at the most inappropriate times! … So wish me luck and I shall miss a lot but I hope I will be able to catch up and more importantly .. regale you with stories from the North East!
