Listening to music under a starlit sky with grass grazing against your feet is a completely different experience from listening to the same in the confines of four walls," says Supreet Singh, convener, RagaMoon festival ahead of its second edition this weekend. This, along with the need to build a community was the genesis of the boutique 24-hour long music fest hosted on a hilltop surrounded by the sea.

This year, it will host five bands and 20 musicians while foraying into dance with a belly dance kathak fusion workshop by Ada Kyra. The format remains the same; a confluence of crossover artistes and audience spending a day together in a green rustic backdrop. "The idea is to give crossover and contemporary music a unique platform," says Singh admitting that the each of the bands has a rustic feel or are nature-inspired. "Besides, the format is self-limiting and we can't have a formal setup meant for ghazals or qawwalis," he adds.
