Long bio

The Unplugged Band started in 2020 with three engineering friends making music together in lockdown, and became a band on 16 August 2021 in Valsad, Gujarat. Today it is a line-up of nine or more musicians: vocals, guitars, bass, keys, drums and live percussion, with guest artists for bigger stages.

One set moves between three worlds: live Bollywood from retro to current chart-toppers, Gujarati folk with garba, raas and lagna geet driven by dhol and percussion, and unplugged, fusion arrangements for quieter moments. Shows range from weddings, sangeet and Navratri nights to corporate events, cafe sets and open-air concerts.

Highlights include the main stage of the Saputara Monsoon Festival in 2025, where the band was recognised among the top five performing bands, a return to that stage in 2026, a hillside sunset concert in the Dang hills, and nights at AntiSocial, Lower Parel in Mumbai. In 2025 the band released its original song Zindagi.
