Monsieur Doumani live in Arunachal Pradesh

Experience Monsieur Doumani live on September 24th

Monsieur Doumani is scheduled to perform at the Ziro Festival in Arunachal Pradesh, India on September 24, 2026. The group creates music rooted in Balkan Romani traditions, blending clarinet, guitar, and percussion to produce a sound often described as “gypsy jazz” or “Balkan beats,” though their style incorporates elements of jazz, funk, and traditional folk music from across Eastern Europe. They are known for energetic live performances and instrumental virtuosity.

The Ziro Festival of Music, first held in 2012, takes place in Ziro Valley in Arunachal Pradesh. It distinguishes itself as an outdoor festival prioritizing sustainable practices and promoting independent music. Originally conceived to boost tourism in the region and provide a platform for local artists, it quickly gained international recognition for its unique location – nestled amidst rice paddies and pine hills – and its eclectic lineup featuring both Indian and international acts. The festival champions inclusivity and aims to foster cultural exchange through music. It has become a significant event for the state’s tourism sector and is noted for its community-focused atmosphere. The festival generally focuses on indie rock, electronic, and folk genres alongside more experimental sounds.
