Your live singer in Meghalaya

Meghalaya means the abode of clouds. Cherrapunji and Mawsynram are among the rainiest places on earth, the living root bridges of the Khasi hills are woven from rubber-tree roots, and the caves of Mawsmai and the clean village of Mawlynnong draw travellers. The Khasi, Garo and Jaintia communities each keep their own traditions.

The state loves music. Shillong is called the rock capital of India, with a tradition of guitar bands, and Christmas is celebrated with carols and concerts throughout the hills. Khasi and Garo folk songs, the Wangala drum dance and English-language country and rock are all part of life.

An unplugged set of Hindi, English and Sufi songs suits the audience. The weather is rainy, and covered venues and flexible timing are part of the plan.

The year in Meghalaya

Christmas and New Year are the peak, followed by spring when the weather is clear. The Wangala festival of the Garos in November and Nongkrem of the Khasis in autumn are cultural highlights. The monsoon is extremely wet.

What Meghalaya hosts expect

The people are friendly, relaxed and musical. Hosts like a warm, interactive performance.

A rock-and-country set list for Meghalaya

English songs carry as much weight as Hindi here. Country Roads, Hotel California, Perfect and Tum Hi Ho can sit in the same set, and a Khasi hymn from the church choir tradition is appreciated when a local musician joins. Christmas evenings are famous for carols.

Planning a booking in Meghalaya

Shillong is the centre for events, with hotels, clubs and churches that host concerts. Cherrapunji and Mawlynnong draw visitors for their scenery, and Tura in the Garo hills is a separate journey. Most visitors arrive through Guwahati airport and drive up in three hours.

The monsoon is among the heaviest in the world, so outdoor plans are best in winter and spring. Shillong’s audiences are fond of English rock and country, so a set that mixes English and Hindi songs suits them.
