Strike A Light Presents
Soumik Datta – Hope Notes

Soumik Datta is an award-winning musician, producer and television presenter. He plays the 19-stringed sarod and combines Indian music with spoken word, arts activism and electronica.

Soumik has collaborated with artists like Beyonce, Jay-Z, Bill Bailey, Nitin Sawhney, Joss Stone, Anoushka Shankar, Arijit Singh, Akram Khan and Shankar Mahadevan, to name a few.

As part of his national tour, Soumik brings his company’s full-length production Hope Notes to create a tapestry of refugee stories, electric sarod, strings and animation. It’ll be a sensory feast that challenges social injustice through an uplifting, musical lens.

Hope Notes was made in collaboration with refugees from Syria, Afghanistan, Kenya, Bangladesh, Yemen, Cameroon and Uganda and is a powerful tribute to the displaced communities of the world.
