Rejected Cartoons is a six-piece band from Kolkata based in Mumbai. The band does not like to

stick to one form of music, as each member adds a hint of their own influences to their ‘genre’

which manifests as the sonic orchestra that the cartoons are widely popular for. The band is

multilingual and performs in English, Hindi and other languages such as Urdu, Arabic, Nepali, etc.

Apart from gigs in popular Live Music venues, they also perform at corporate gigs in & around

Mumbai.

Influences include artists like Mumford&Sons, Hooverphonic, Damien Rice, Aurora, Alt-J, Glass

Animals, Sigur Rós, Vishal Bhardwaj, A.R. Rahman, Prateek Kuhaad, Bipul Chhetri, As We Keep

Searching, etc. The band incorporates a lot of folk & classical instruments like mandolin, dotara,

mandira, ukulele, frame drum, sitar etc. in their music.

Their debut video ‘Bless Me Fair’ with renowned Kolkata based

independent music platform Friday Night Originals, gave them the

traction required to pave the way to their debut EP, set to be

released in 2020.
