hot beats, spicy music

TadkaTunes

A tadka is the spices bloomed in hot oil first — the burst that seasons everything that follows. That's the band, live: Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Bengali favorites, blended smooth as a shahi paneer, each one getting its own turn on the menu.

About the Band

A little about the kitchen

TadkaTunes plays Bollywood favorites old and new, tempered live for weddings, corporate nights, and festival stages across DFW. Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Bengali numbers all share the set, blended smooth rather than stacked one after another.
