ARNOB, the most talented indie musician in Bangladesh, returns to London after two long years. This time with all his musical mates in tow, for yet another sell-out concert. This is a benefit concert for DRISHTIPAT which works to empower and enable the underprivileged and marginalized segments of society so that they can exercise their most basic human rights with dignity, opportunity and hope.
Sponsored by the London chapter of Drishtipat, the concert is the last leg of a five-city World Tour spanning North America and the UK.
Arnob's partners in crime this time are:
- ANDREW, brilliant jazz saxophonist
- NAZRUL, dhol artist par excellence
- DHRUBO
- JIBON
- NAZIA
