City fest brings Colonial Cousins, Hariharan and Leslee Lewis together

Hariharan and Leslee Lewis

Indian fusion pop duo of Hariharan and Leslee Lewis will perform at the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival on February 12, and deliver a nostalgic throwback to the '90s. The duo is best known for songs like Krishna, Sa ni dha pa, and Indian rain.

Hariharan says, "We were itching to get together, because wherever we go, we are always questioned about the Colonial Cousins, and if we are together. This was a constant reminder that our fans were yearning to see us again."

Lewis adds that there will be a new set of younger audiences who will be exposed to their music. "Mumbai is where our story began, and hence, I think the Kala Ghoda platform will be a space where we can truly experience the energy of the Mumbai audience." Colonial Cousins are known for their music that blends Indian classical music with contemporary western music. They won the MTV Asia Viewer's Choice Award , the US Billboard's Viewers' Choice Awards 1996, and have the distinction of being the first Asian band to perform on MTV Unplugged in 1996.
