Folk music is an iconic genre in India that has brought to the forefront some of the best and most established singers of today – Raghu Dixit being one of them, audiences have loved and revered him. It is a delight to get him on stage and what better way to celebrate music than unwinding with friends on Christmas eve, and giving into the melody and the soul of classic multi-lingual folk music”
