Ever since I was a kid I was taken to live music events and shows. My parents were and are huge Bollywood music lovers and my dad went to the same school as Freddie Mercury (as every person from that generation who was born in Zanzibar probably would have). From Kumar Sanu to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. From Alka Yagnik to Kavita Krishnamurthi my parents used to take us to music shows from a young age. As I grew older my tastes developed and I continued enjoying concerts more.. I have been to so many different concerts.. The Black Keys, Kanye West & Jay-Z, Take That, Lily Allen, The Killers, The Kaiser Chiefs, The Lumineers, Beyonce and many, many more! I think that experiencing live music from a young age has made me appreciate it more today and I appreciate music from so many genre’s…
These days what I really enjoy is going to smaller, more intimate gigs and if it is for charity it is even better!
