Raghu Dixit

Raghu Dixit is one of the biggest names in the Indian indie circuit, which some people might find surprising given that he primarily sings in regional South Indian languages. Yet, his folksy tunes have such a foot-tapping quality that he's even performed before the Queen of England, no less. Now, the Raghu Dixit Project is about to play a concert in Mumbai, a city that doesn't get to hear the band too often. We caught up with the act's frontman over email ahead of the gig. Excerpts.
