Over the weekend, Bangalore witnessed some amazing live performances thanks to Emerge Music & Arts Festival. The two headlining acts, Alt-J and Rudimental were particularly awesome!

Unfortunately for the Delhi leg of the fest, the torrential rain and weather conditions were deemed too unsafe for the show to go on, and the event was cancelled. We really hope the event will be rescheduled, as Delhi deserves the brilliant show Bangalore witnessed.

Here are some moments and pictures we scooped off Instagram to show you what it was like..

7. And then came Alt-J, who quite clearly won the night, with their spectacular performance. Every single person in the audience sang along to all the lyrics of Fitzpleasure, Breezeblocks, Matilda, Taro, Devour Me….the list is endless.

9. The windy weather and the cloudy sky, definitely added to the vibe of the music. In simple words : Alt-j was perfect!
