Olli and The Bollywood Orchestra is inviting you to a great trip between indian and Western musics. The project is directed with passion by his singer and composer Olli. It is the first large musical live and video performance carried by a French singer around the universe of the Bollywood films, a contraction of Bombay and Hollywood, indicating cinematographic industry very characteristic of India. Combining the romantic topics and the great popular songs of the Indian cinema with the subtle ones and personal compositions sung in Hindi, Olli also insufflated a “ banghra” spirit -Banghra is a very rhythmic and joyfull music, originating in Penjâb, North of India - since the meeting with DJ SWAMI in Transmusicales of Rennes. Olli and the Bollywood Orchestra live displays remixed images of the Indian cinema and performs on stage the best songs from the double album “Kitchen” as well as new compositions in Hindi or Penjâbi from the new album "Tantra".
