A Ground- breaking fusion of East and West

Experience the electrifying cross-cultural collaboration of Australia’s magical purveyors of the a cappella art Coco’s Lunch, with Indian percussion stars The Sai Brothers, as together they unite in a groundbreaking fusion of musical cultures: Raising Rhythms. Sublime vocal textures and angelic harmonies juxtapose with the virtuosic rhythmic energy of these renowned siblings on mridangam, kanjira and tabla in a bold exploration of creativity.

Known internationally for their rhythmic prowess, ensemble-composed konnakol, soulful lyrics and skintight harmonies, Coco’s Lunch with the Sai Brothers offers a transcendent musical experience that resonates both locally and globally – and is a must-see incarnation for existing fans of Coco’s Lunch.

Coco’s Lunch are Australia’s multi award-winning, magical purveyors of original vocal repertoire. With 7 critically acclaimed albums under their belt, these women have won the hearts of audiences in over 13 different countries, received countless awards, been featured on compilation albums worldwide, and inspired a generation of singers. Rising superstars The Sai Brothers are fast becoming recognised in both Australia and India for their virtuosic mridangam playing, grounded in their rich musical lineage and training under the late maestro Guru Karaikudi R Mani

“Coco’s Lunch remains one of the most inspirational and culturally compelling A Cappella groups in the world, reflecting the better society that awaits us all if we lean into harmony.”  Deke Sharon, USA
