NH7 Weekender is all set to return for a 15th edition with a line-up comprising over 30 homegrown and international artists. The event will be held on December 14 and 15 at Teerth Fields in Pune.
British singer-songwriter Jorja Smith, a 2019 Grammy nominee for best new artist, will be making her India debut at the NH7 Weekender 2024. Known for her soulful voice and poignant lyricism, Jorja has collaborated with the likes of Kali Uchis, Stormzy, Kendrick Lamar, Burna Boy and Drake.
Headlining the festival is National Award winner Amit Trivedi. Whether it's the genre-defying soundscape of Dev D or the soul-stirring tunes of Qala, his music goes beyond language and genre.
Talking about his journey with NH7 Weekender, Amit Trivedi said, “NH7 Weekender is memorable to me as my first ever live performance in 2014. My journey from then to now with the festival has been nothing short of exhilarating. The festival gives artists a platform to explore their musical freedom. I cannot wait to be back on the NH7 Weekender stage."
The line-up also features American DJ Craze who will be performing for the first time in India. Until 2020, he was the only solo DJ in history to win the DMC World DJ Championships trophy three consecutive times from 1998 to 2000.
Youngr, who has racked up over 100 million global streams and played over 150 shows in 40 countries around the world, will be bringing his unique multi instrumental style to the fest.
The 15th year of NH7 Weekender is also set to see some of the most prominent homegrown musicians: Usha Uthup, King and rapper Raftaar.
Speaking about his performance at this year's festival, Raftaar said, “I am ecstatic to debut at NH7 Weekender. Having been present at the festival over the years as an attendee and also, to support my friends, I am looking forward to finally performing at the happiest music festival. It is a great opportunity to connect with my fans. Waiting to vibe with the Weekender Warriors."
Asterism and Oliver Cronin have also joined the team of international artists set to make their India debut at this year's NH7 Weekender.
