The second episode of Provisions is scheduled for the 8th of March (Sunday) at The Courtyard, Bengaluru. From 6 pm onwards, Double T, Chutney Mary, Pardafash and The Girl From The Sun will be curating music from across the spectrum, drawing on a plethora of genres and styles to soundtrack the evening.

Provisions is hosted by members of Bengaluru-based music collective Consolidate and their friends. The plan is throw a relaxed, informal party in the green courtyard space in Shanti Nagar where you can come hear playlists curated by local artists.
