Embark on a mind-bending musical journey with Kaleidoscope – a fusion of jazz, funk, and electronic dance music. What started as a Master’s thesis project led by keyboardist and producer, Manu Gajanan, has evolved into a dynamic community of musicians scattered across Pennsylvania. 

At its core, Kaleidoscope pays homage to a crucial transitional period in Manu’s life, marked by relocation from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, as he shifted from one musical hub to another. The relocation not only broadened the network of musicians but also provided a canvas to showcase diverse voices and to chart new musical territories.

The original tunes, meticulously crafted by Manu G serve as the heartbeat of the project, inviting musicians to contribute their interpretations and experiences to the kaleidoscopic world of sound. 

Kaleidoscope is not just a band, but a living, breathing entity that captures the essence of a personal and artistic metamorphosis. Join us on this auditory adventure where boundaries are limitless and the possibilities are ever-changing, similar to the mesmerizing patterns of a kaleidoscope.
