Rupa & the April Fishes creates fresh music that defies the notion of genre - it is a whimsical magic carpet ride through time and place. Mixing sounds from the Far East, Europe, Latin America and the US, they give an unforgettable multilingual performance with songs in French, Spanish, English, Hindi and Roma that range from raucous to romantic. Rupa's music is a pastiche of sounds and impressions - undeniably full of heart - with subject matters ranging from love and loss in a time of uncertainty to stories of people in transition.
