Circle of Love, a Chennai-based independent music community platform has announced Circle of Love Block Party – a unique multi-genre musical initiative. Circle of Love Block Party will be held at The Park Hotel on 2 April 2022, with performances at Leather Bar, Pasha and the lobby area.
The performances will consist of hip-hop, house, techno, commercial music and feature a line-up of indie musicians, including Singapore’s Yung Raja.
The artistes performing at Circle of Love Block Party includes Ayesha Premanik, Anisha, Honeymoonhenny, 2 Faan, Nejm, East Coast Movement, Nez, Sneha Sridhar and Santana.
Sameer Sethi, Founder, Circle of Love said, “Circle of Love was founded to create opportunities and a supportive network for indie artists across India. Over the last couple of years, we have steadily been building the community, and we are delighted to be offering this opportunity for audiences and artists to connect live. The presence of an international artist like Yung Raja further expands new possibilities for emerging artists, who get to showcase their talent alongside top names.”
Manny added, “Despite having been founded shortly before the pandemic began, we have consistently put out some great initiatives that have gotten the word out about some of the best new music out there. This includes our Centre Stage series of performances that were recorded and produced when the lockdowns began, and our Circle of Love Festival in 2021 that featured over 20 artists. We have been associated with over 50 artists nationally, and the number only continues to grow.”
Speaking on performing at Circle of Love Block Party, Yung Raja said, “Inspiring the next generation of hip-hop innovators is something very close to my heart, and I’m excited about supporting up-and-coming Indian musicians by sharing this platform with them. It’s always a pleasure for me to perform in India, especially in Chennai, and I am looking forward to being back here and presenting my new work too.”
