Echoes of the Himalayas: An Evening of Music and Stories

An intimate evening of Himalayan acoustic music, storytelling and connection, created and performed by Himachali vocalist Sia Sharma.

Echoes of the Himalayas is an intimate live music and storytelling experience created by Himachali vocalist Sia Sharma.

Through acoustic performances, personal stories and shared moments, the evening brings the lesser-heard musical traditions and cultural identity of the Himalayan region into the heart of London.

The experience unfolds through three parts:

Discover
Experience acoustic songs from the Himalayan region and hear the stories, memories and traditions carried within them.

Share
Take part in gentle audience prompts exploring identity, belonging, heritage and our individual connections to home.

Connect
Meet people from different backgrounds through thoughtfully designed introductions and informal conversations.

Presented during South Asian Heritage Month 2026, Echoes of the Himalayas reflects this year’s theme, Unity in Diversity, by celebrating a distinctive and underrepresented part of South Asia’s cultural landscape.

You do not need to be from the Himalayan region or from a South Asian background to attend. The experience is open to anyone interested in music, storytelling, culture and meaningful human connection.
