The Arko Mukhaerjee Collective: 

The Arko Mukhaerjee Collective is a unique effort to unite musicians under a common platform of open free music sharing, exploring influences from around the world. This five-member project draws inspiration from Rural Bengal, Pan India, West Africa, Sukous, Nepali folk, Gypsy music, Middle East, Old-time swing, American folk music, Qawwali, Reggae, Jazz, Afro Cuban music, Celtic standards, and Retro Bollywood. The result is a vibrant fusion. 

Every concert by The Arko Mukhaerjee Collective is a one-of-a-kind sonic and emotional journey, ranging from Retro Bollywood to Old-time swing. This artistic endeavor appeals to a broad audience, bridging generational gaps and offering something for everyone. The Collective binds Rural Bengal together with West Africa, creating a unique melange of music that will transport you to a dancy trancy vibe.
