9 Grader Nord Live

A live set from a Norway-based band fronted by sisters Mira and Dipha Thiruchelvam - where Tamil folk collided with rock, carrying the weight of home, exile, and defiance straight into the room.

31 January 2026

Formed in 2016, the band quickly became one of the most striking acts in the Nordic music scene, known for performances that are rebellious, joyful, and self-assured.
