Sound Dhaba: a place to find tasty sound treats
Sound Dhaba
History, goals and working principles:
Sound Dhaba is a venture/adventure to uplift emerging musical artists who celebrate the musical bonds and echoes between global music traditions, Black American music, and the rich new music which arises from the intersection of our diasporic communities where traditions blend, grow, and inspire one another. Together we will find joy, grounding, transformation and healing from live music in an intimate setting in LA.
​​​
Sound Dhaba’s musical events are being curated by a nurse who, over the last 3 decades, has found grounding and healing in the transformative power of live music while caring with and for the most vulnerable who live in our LA communities.
​​
Sound Dhaba celebrates music’s ability to nurture the soul and bring people together across backgrounds, experiences, and struggles.
​
Sound Dhaba is rooted in its desires to meaningfully support the sustainability and longevity of the artists, ensuring they have a platform to grow, innovate, explore, foster connections and share their talents.
​​
At the same time, Sound Dhaba is dedicated to creating an inclusive space where music lovers—especially those who may not always have the financial means to attend such events—can experience the magic of live music. Sound Dhaba commits to finding this balance with transparency and integrity as relationships are built with each musician and those who love experiencing their musicianship. Sound Dhaba is working towards sustainability and not monetary enrichment for itself.
​
There is so much amazing music which emerges from global interconnections that are a result of diasporic forces and technology. Sound Dhaba looks forward to creating space for it in LA.
