Yesterday, United Communication organised an incredible event, the first season of "Dhaka Rock Carnival: Shadhin Bangla Betar", which delivered a memorable musical experience to the city.
The spirit of solidarity through music has been a beacon of hope and activism throughout history. Just as the "To Gaza, from Dhaka – Artists Against Genocide" concert unites Bangladeshi musicians to aid Gaza, it bears a striking resemblance to another historic musical event: the "Concert for Bangladesh."

It was almost 11:30 pm on the clock but the crowd was still spellbound by the mesmerising performance of Nagar Baul’s James. That is the kind of expectation, one attends a concert with and it was the case yesterday too.
The concert will showcase a total of eight bands, including Warfaze, Avoidrafa, Shonar Bangla Circus, Karnival, Aftermath, Plasmic Knock and AK Rahul. But that’s not all! The biggest attraction of this concert will be the living legend Mahfuz Anam James.
The concert was a joyful mix of youth, music, and enjoyment as visitors swayed and danced with the performances on stage.
The standout rendition was Cryptic Fate’s interpretation of “Teer Hara Ei Dheuer Shagor”. As the night reached a crescendo with fans chanting for Artcell,
Arranged by the Centre for Research and Information (CRI) subgroup Young Bangla, the concert has now, specially called forth for female participation.
