The Great Gig In The Sky with Dhimant Varman

Jumpstart Outdoors has always worked at providing a wholesome experience in the outdoors while keeping the finer points of sustainability, conservation and responsible traveling in mind. They believe that music holds a great power of transcendence and when in the outdoors it can provide for a magical other-worldly experience. The Great Gig in the Sky is just that. It is an attempt at taking two of their most cherished experiences and combining them to provide a heady mixture of raw, unadulterated bliss.

Their Fourteenth gig will take you to the LetsCampout campsite at Kashid Beach, for an overnight experience of camping, bird watching, frolicking in the sea on a secluded private beach, fishing on the shore, star gazing, and of course the Gig itself. You will get various opportunities to witness first hand, the sounds, sights and smells of the outdoors and watch them transform after sunset.

Picture this - a nippy February evening, the wind gossiping with the salty sprays from the ocean, the glow of a kerosene lamp, the sound of waves crashing on the beach, and in the midst of it all, Dhimant Varman, setting the mood.

ABOUT DHIMANT VARMAN

Dhimant Varman's music style could be broadly identified as Indian Classical Music fused with Western Classic Rock. Trained in the basics of sitar, by his father Pt. Rajendra Varman since the age of 5 years, he received guidance from Padmashree Ustad Abdul Halim Jaffer Khan as he followed the Gharana "Jaffer Khani Baaj". He has also been guided by the sitar maestro Ustad Shahid Parvez. 

He has performed at many concerts, conferences, and at renowned musical academies throughout the nation. His work also includes the alluring sitar performance that dominates the backdrop in the movie Padmaavat, and his fusion performances with the Classic Rock Band "UnderCover". He might surprise us by performing his original music as well.

In short, the two days will provide travel, camping, relaxation, fun, and above all the gig. What better way to spend a weekend!
