Comments 32 by Rebecca Bollwitt

Formed on CelticFest’s stage in 2006, Delhi 2 Dublin is one of Canada’s most buzzed-about bands and they’ll be returning to CelticFest Vancouver on March 15th.

Delhi2Dublin

Who: Delhi 2 Dublin with special guest Troy MacGillivray and Mairi Rankin
When: Sunday, March 15, 2015 at 8:00pm
Where: Imperial, 319 Main Street, Vancouver
Tickets: $25 in advance online, $30 at the door, must be 19+

I first heard the Bhangra / Celtic sound of Delhi 2 Dublin when strolling down Granville during Juno Fest 2009. The distinct pulsating melodies mixed with Dub Reggae and Electronica caught everyone’s attention as the tent hosting the group had the crowd spilling out from the street and onto the sidewalk.

I saw them again at the Commodore in 2010, where the audience threw up their hands and pogo’ed up and down while chanting for D2D. Sitar music blended with wicked violin as kilts and saris twirled on stage. Beats made the crowd bounce as the energy was contagious — everyone was having a blast.
