Dholrhythms(5yr) & NSB(4yr) Anniversary Celebrations--"BHANGRAFEST"

We are excited to share that we are celebrating Dholrhythms and Non Stop Bhangra anniversaries this month. Dholrhythms is celebrating 5yrs and Non Stop Bhangra turns 4. Dholrhythms first year anniversary gave birth to NSB. Wow, what an amazing journey it has been.

Dholrhythms and NSB Collective have been fortunate enough to share its passion on some amazing stages over the years, including Stern Grove Music Festival last summer and Power To The Peaceful Festival in Golden Gate Park this summer. This is a milestone for us so we really wanted to celebrate with the SF Bay Area community that has allowed us to flourish. In an effort to continue spreading the energy of Bhangra that is being seeked out by the masses, we are celebrating our anniversary with our first annual festival “BhangraFest”


The festival consists of a series of presentations including free classes for both adults and kids, workshops and performances, along with events as the Non Stop Bhangra Collective throughout the San Francisco Bay Area Community. These events will take place at various locations, collaborating with various organizations, most of which are free to the public. So bring your family and friends and join us at one or all of these festivities.

Thank you for your continued support, love, and for being a part of our community. We look forward to celebrating with you. See you on the dance floor!

BHANGRAFEST 2008 LIST OF EVENTS

NSB D2D MASHUP

NSB welcomed back Delhi 2 Dublin from Vancouver, Canada for the second time this year. After a sold out show in March for St. Patricks Day, we were thrilled to have them back in the house. Like the first time, It was a sold out night, with line around the block. They rocked the house one more time. Dj Collage was in the house tearing up the stage alongside D2D. Mandeep Sethi, NSB Resident Emcee, threw down some rhymes of his own when he joined the crew.
Check out a review of D2D at NSB on Evolving Music Blog



We all had an amazing night, another unique experience to remember. And as always, one of our favorite moments of the night was when we asked how many people are here for the first time. We always begin NSB with this ritual. its always pleasantly astounding to see how many people raise their hands each time. The best part is finding out that most people heard about it through their friends, through word of mouth. That is the best way for this community to grow.

And as every month, one of the other traditions is taking one last shot, which we call the “The Last Man Standing”. Every month the crew takes a photograph at the end of the night to celebrate, rejoice, remember, laugh, and create one more memory that gets etched in our mind.
