Banat
Event description
Banat started learning the harmonium at the age of five with “Kirtan” being amongst the other semi-classical musical education she was imbibed with. Having grown up in a traditional Punjabi household, a recent chain of circumstances pushed her to go back to her roots and rediscover her art. A shift from her usual music style, as she embraced her culture she carved another alcove of experience which has intensified her range as an artist.
Banat’s ability to engage audiences both Western and Indian through her storytelling has led her to play multiple shows internationally. In August '19, Banat successfully completed her first ever international tour in the UK, playing 8 shows in London, Manchester and other cities. More recently, she also toured Copenhagen, Denmark in April '23 and New Zealand Tour in July ‘23 playing in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland to promote her upcoming Punjabi Folk Album.
She has also played both her Original and Punjabi Folk music in cities like Berlin, Paris, Nice and Budapest.
