It is a busy farewell to 2022 for guitarist Adil Manuel. With packed schedules and the frenzy of the grand finale, Manuel admits that it can get a bit hectic, but in a good way. Curated by him, the Soulstation gig tonight promises an extensive line-up of 15 musicians with names such as Anusha Ramasubramoney, Shubhangi C, Pushkar Srivatsal and Yohaan Pissurlenker, among others.

“I’ve dubbed the event Soulstation because most of the music revolves around RnB, blues, funk and soul music,” Manuel tells us. The performance will be “groove-driven,” he asserts, adding, “The idea is to ensure everyone has a good time and to get them to dance and move.”
