Ahmedabad guitarist planning to shift to Bangalore — wanted honest advice about the music scene
Hey everyone, I’m from Ahmedabad and I’ve been taking music seriously for the last few years, mainly guitar, songwriting, and building my musicianship overall.
Honestly, Ahmedabad feels very limited when it comes to finding serious musicians, forming bands, regular jams, gigs, or a strong live music culture. Because of that, I’ve been thinking seriously about shifting to Bangalore in the future.
I wanted honest opinions from people already in the scene there.
How is the reality of Bangalore’s music culture?
- finding musicians/bands
- gigs/open mics
- networking
- indie scene
- learning from serious guitar teachers
- music colleges worth joining
And what are the harsh realities people usually don’t talk about?
I’m not expecting overnight success or anything. I just genuinely want to be around people who live and breathe music and keep improving myself as a guitarist and musician.
Would love honest advice from people already there.
