Holi at Bandcamp is our own little way of helping you reconnect with the spirit of Holi out in the open in a beautiful camping environment. Also, since the venue is BANDCAMP, there is going to be some great live music.

There will also be bonfires, a barbeque, sunset walks, and some great food! The campsite has large grounds and we’ve added hammocks, books, and games to ensure that there is something for everyone.

About the site:

A stone’s throw away from the city (clock says 60 mins!), BANDCAMP is located off Gorai beach. The layout is such that you can enjoy nature and have your privacy even though it’s a bustling campsite. Expect tents, sleeping bags and camping goodies, unwind in the main area or walk around the fishing village down to the sea anytime.

Since Uttan is a coastal town (home to the Koli community), meals are freshly made by locals.

BandCamp is best suited for groups, solo campers, families, corporates, couples and pets. Basically, EVERYBODY! You can even attend our Movie Nights or weekend workshops on Capoeira, Photography, Fitness, Poetry and so on.

Band 1: Sadho ft. Madhur Padwal

India is a land of diverse cultures and experiences. All these experiences manifest themselves in art, music being one of the biggest avenues of expression. We are not folk artists, and we have not spent years living and learning with bauls, manganiyars , dogris or folk musicians around the country. We have been avid listeners of all forms of music and our music is more thematic than generic. We compose original tunes influenced by various folk forms of India. From Assam to UP, from Rajasthan to Kerala, Kashmir to Orissa, we have tried our best to derive inspiration from every state. Sadho is a result of our collective years of experience in exploring the rich cultural diversity of India.

The band comprises of two core members: Rohit and Vineet. However, we collaborate with guest musicians from various styles of music whenever possible.

Sadho is our very own production. Come explore India with us!

Ft.Madhur Padwal 

Madhur started his music career with Live Band performances and concerts.

He travels across different parts of India to study Indian Folk Music practically and learn all the rare Indian Stringed, Skinned and other percussive Indian folk Instruments.
