Live Acoustic Music & Performance Highlights
Moments from the stage where I share my stories through song. Whether it is an intimate house gig or a lively cafe set, this is where the music happens.
This is where I feel most at home, on stage with my guitar. This shot captures that moment of connection, just me, the music, and the story I'm about to tell. It's the core of my solo acoustic sessions.
There's no better feeling than when the crowd joins in and sings with you. This was a trio performance where we covered the classic 'Zara Zara', and the whole room became one voice. It’s this shared energy I love to create at house concerts and cafe gigs.
I write songs that come straight from the heart. This is a clip from an original piece I wrote, perfect for an intimate setting. It shows the softer, more personal side of my songwriting, just me and my guitar in a quiet space.
The hustle is real, but the dream is always worth it. This photo was taken during a big festival performance, capturing the energy and passion that goes into every show. It's a reminder of the journey from writing songs in my room to playing under the big lights.
Performing my original song "Aazaadi?" with my band. This song is a conversation about what freedom really means. It shows how my music can scale from a solo acoustic setup to a full band experience for larger events.
Sometimes, it's just about stripping a song down to its bones. Here's my take on Radiohead's 'Creep', recorded in a simple, personal setting. This is the kind of raw, soulful acoustic cover I love to play, whether it's English rock or a Bollywood classic.
Music is always better when shared. Here's a clip from a duo performance of 'Bol Na Halke'. Collaborating with other talented artists adds a unique flavor to my sets, perfect for creating a layered sound at private parties or corporate events.
About this collection
When deciding on your setup, keep in mind that I bring my own portable amp for small, intimate house gatherings of under 25 guests. If you are planning a larger event or a corporate gig, I will need you to coordinate with the venue to ensure there is a professional PA system available, as that helps me maintain the sound quality across the entire space.
This featured collection gives you a quick look into what I do, from raw acoustic storytelling to full-band energy. My music is all about that connection—whether it is a retro classic that everyone remembers or an original song I wrote about my own journey.
The Setup That Fits You
I scale my performances based on the vibe of your event. If you want something unplugged and quiet for a dinner or a small living room party, a solo acoustic session works best. If you need something with more rhythm and energy for a cocktail hour, my duo or trio configurations add keys or percussion to the mix, giving the sound a lot more depth.
Originals & Covers
I don’t just play the hits. While I love performing tracks from Arijit Singh, KK, or retro legends like Jagjit Singh, I always weave in my own originals like 'Nataa' or 'Aazaadi?'. These songs come with the stories behind them, which is exactly the kind of personal element I bring to every show.
Playing Across India
While Bangalore is home and I frequent spots in Indiranagar, Koramangala, and Whitefield, I travel wherever the music takes me. From house concerts in Gokarna to festival stages in Goa, I am happy to pack my guitar and hit the road. If you are curious about specific logistics for your venue, just drop me a message and we can figure out the details.
Badal Kashyap
I'm Badal, and for me, the stage is home. I started writing songs at 17, and today, I bring those original stories—along with the retro classics and Bollywood hits we all love—to your living rooms, cafes, and events. Let’s make it bohot fun.
