A Melodious Monsoon Beckons
Upcoming Music Festivals and Concerts to Watch Out For In India
Music makes the world go round. It's a timeless, universal language. Which is why, it is no surprise
that even today, a concert or a music festival continues to draw in crowds in hundreds and
thousands, sometimes, even in millions. The stage, where the concert or the festival takes place, is
no longer a static space. It seems to move to the rhythm of sound too. As the stage becomes vividly
dynamic in sync with the performance, the concert/festival comes to life. In this edition of the
'Upstaged' column, the editors of the PALM Expo Magazine sheds light on the upcoming music
concerts/festivals in multiple cities across India. In the next two months, the stage is set for
music lovers to groove to the beats that metamorphize noise into melody.
