In tune with tradition

The Himalayan Highway band creates a distinctive sound by seamlessly blending Nepali folk music and American bluegrass.

Stepping away briefly to answer a call, I watched as Prince Nepali, Zoe Levitt, Yuson Maharjan, and Anish Tamang, collectively known as The Himalayan Highway, playfully surrounded my phone, creating amusing noises. Upon replaying the recording, I realised they had actually spontaneously created a song. The rhythmic beats of the table, the soft clinks of glass, and the deep hums blended seamlessly, forming a beautiful melody that took over my recording. In that short moment, their natural chemistry and shared love for music became evident to me.
