Darbar Fringe:
Nicki Wells: Afterglow

Synopsis

Share:

What do a singer/songwriter/composer, urban visual creative, a rap artist, classical Santoor artist and an urban hang drum player have in common?

Five innovative artists share a new piece of work following a five-day residency to connect urban, contemporary and classical forms and create a distinctive new sound. Featuring Nicki Wells (contemporary vocals), Eeshar Singh (Santoor), Helms DNV (rap artist), Daniel Waples (urban hang drum) and Sukhpal Bhogal (contemporary creative video editor).

Running time: 1 hour, followed by a free 30-minute audience Q&A

Now in its third year, Darbar Fringe is an urban, contemporary and classical festival that celebrates the cultural relationship between the UK and the Indian subcontinent, and explores the many creative influences generated by our shared and evolving history.

The festival features three incredible headline acts across three days – find out more about its other performances Colectiva and Anomaly.
