🌸 Mr. Hat Presents an Evening with Ronobir Lahiri
Friday, October 9th | Chapel of The Flowers, Berkeley Doors: 7:30 PM | Show: 8:30 PM | Sponsored by CBCB, Berkeley's most beloved dispensary
Friday, October 9th, the Chapel of The Flowers in Berkeley welcomes back classical sitar master, viral sensation Ronobir Lahiri for an intimate, one-of-a-kind concert experience unlike anything you've experienced. PLEASE NOTE- THIS SHOW SOLD OUT LAST TIME- PLEASE SECURE YOUR TICKETS EARLY!
Ronobir Lahiri has gone viral for his brilliant, genre-bending sitar covers of throwback hip-hop classics. A Calcutta-trained classical sitarist based in Los Angeles, Lahiri seamlessly blends the complex strings of ancient Indian ragas with iconic 90s and 2000s hip-hop beats, often pairing the instrumentation with his surprisingly soulful vocals. His hip-hop reinterpretations have caught the ears of the Wu-Tang Clan, Lil Nas X, Ziggy Marley, and Katy Perry, among other notables, earning him collaborations and kudos from across the musical spectrum.
But Ronobir's artistry runs even deeper than the clips you've seen on your feed. Steeped in the tradition of Hindustani classical music and profoundly shaped by the improvisational spirit of Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead, Ronobir approaches the sitar the way the Dead approached a live show: as a living, breathing conversation between musician and audience, full of unexpected turns, meditative depths, and pure sonic joy.
This is the kind of concert the Chapel of The Flowers was built for. The 101 year-old storybook chapel's exceptional acoustics make it one of the Bay Area's most special settings for live music, wrapping every note in a warmth and resonance that you simply have to hear to believe.
Settle into the vaulted, whimsical & welcoming chapel space (featuring a flower friendly outdoor patio, naturally) with food and beverages available. After the show, there will be a 21+ social hour on the patio hosted by CBCB, Berkeley's most loved dispensary.
And if you think you recognize Ronobir from somewhere else, you might. Beyond his music, he's an accomplished actor with a filmography that spans decades, including appearances in You've Got Mail, Ted 2, Stuart Little 2, Grey's Anatomy, Criminal Minds, Two and a Half Men, and the Emmy-winning drama This Is Us.
This is a Mr. Hat Presents peak live music experience, sponsored by CBCB. Limited reserved seats and GA tickets are available now at MRHATPRESENTS.com.
