The 3 Art House in Khar is known for their programmes based on activities for children. With Little Sounds, they hope to expose the kids to Indian indie music at a young age
Say the words ‘house gig’ and the picture that comes to mind is of a group of men and women seated and listening to the band play, maintaining silence in deference to the musicians and their art. This one, though, will be different.
Little Sounds is the first ever kids-only gig, with the audience limited to the age group of six to 15 years. The brainchild of Bengaluru-based Romel Dias, Little Sounds was conceived back in 2018. Dias started this platform to host live music shows after seeing his musician friends go through issues such as venues not paying well or issues with sound quality. “We started off as house gigs,” says Dias, “but we also started exploring spaces where you would not typically think of as a gig venue, like a yoga studio or a basement of a tech institute, to name a few.”
