Red Baraat's Festival of Colors

Local drummer and bandleader Sunny Jain heads Red Baraat, said to be the first Indian marching band in the United States. The group explores the exuberant Punjabi wedding-band tradition (baraat is the Hindi word for a wedding processional), as well as Bollywood classics and original tunes. Here, the band celebrates the Hindu holiday of Holi—marked by the throwing of colored powder, so attendees shouldn't be surprised if they end up covered in the stuff—with help from Rupa & the April Fishes and the Brooklyn Raga Massive All-Stars.
