The Raghu Dixit Project, founded by Raghupathy Dixit, is an open house for musicians and artists in different genres to come together, collaborate and create a dynamic sound and expression. Though a gold medalist for his Masters degree in Microbiology and a proficient Indian Classical Dancer (Vidwat in Bharatanatyam), Raghu Dixit is now better known as a self-taught guitarist-singer-composer-song writermusician, based in Bangalore.
Raghu has performed concerts all over India and abroad. His band, the Raghu Dixit Project, has just launched its debut album.
Raghu's music is a seamless amalgamation of Indian ethnic music and styles from different parts of the world. His lyrics, though intense, are simple and speak about common emotions and experiences, making his songs extremely popular.
Inserting Indian ethnic folk, Sufi and classical phrases cleverly into his songs, Raghu's singing style can be described as unique. His vocal range and versatility have often been appreciated with awe. His powerful, folksy vocals are supported by the strum of an acoustic guitar interwoven with violin and flute melodies suddenly giving way to a surprising pinch of blues guitar, all lying comfortably on a bed of Western, Indian and Arabic grooves.
The Raghu Dixit Project live is a completely exhilarating experience. Their shows involve the audience to the fullest.
