The Jazz Voyager

Shisha Café: ABC Farms, Koregaon Park, Pune, India 411001 / Telephone: +91 20 65200390, +91 20 26810050

The Café is the premier jazz spot in Pune, and arguably one of the only pure jazz cafes in the country. They take their music very seriously and believe that after all, the right music creates the best ambience a place could hope for. Expect the best in jazz, blues and beyond. They regularly feature live bands on most Thursday evenings at 8.30 pm. You’ll hear dynamic drumbeats, tuneful guitars and soulful saxophones, some blowing their magic in a rhythmic fusion of bop, swing, funk, trad, straight ahead and more. In fact you’ll experience a wide sweep of the best that 21st-century world music has to offer.

This weekly sound feast culminates in an annual jazz festival held in August. The Café is always on the lookout for fresh new talent and encourages upcoming jazz artists to come and play at Shisha, so that they can reach a discerning audience, and get onto a wider platform, vis-a-vis the music. Contact them to get dates when you can perform at Shisha Café.
