Acts part of this Amarrass Nights:
HimaliMou
Some members of Rehmat-e-Nusrat have regrouped to present 'Pahaadi' or mountain folk music from the Kumaon region. Rarely heard outside the place of its birth, the band will showcase several different styles of music from the region, including Nyoli, Chaiti as well as the Jhora, Chanchari and Chapeli which is performed to dance at important ceremonies, festivals and gatherings. The sonorous melodies of the Bansuri (bamboo flute), rhythmic pulses of the Dholak, hand drums, claps infuse the performances with verve and energy.
Their debut performance was at the Jaipur LitFest 2021
Guy Buttery
“Guy Buttery is something of a National treasure”, says South Africa’s leading newspaper, The Mercury.
An internationally recognised musician, Guy Buttery has to his credit sell-out performances all over the globe. The USA, UK, Australia, France, Brazil and Italy, in fact, have welcomed the multi-instrumentalist year after year.
Guy Buttery is one of South Africa’s musical phenoms, and he has evolved as an ambassador of South African music with his homegrown style.

"It is an aural punch in the gut, delivered with a velvet glove" - Sarthak Kaushik, Ishq 104.6FM.
Rehmat-e-Nusrat, a group of young musicians from the Himayalan state of Uttarakhand, bring a fresh new perspective to the timeless tradition of qawwalis. The group presents qawwalis by Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Sufiyana kalaams by several great poets, including Amir Khusrao, Meera Bai, Baba Bulleh Shah, ghazals, Kabir bhajans, and original compositions.
