Saloni: The Open Fund
Short Project Title: “An Evening with Saloni” UK Tour
Project Description: An Evening with Saloni is the first UK headline tour from British-Asian artist Saloni, following the success of her debut sold-out London headline show and chart-topping EP Rani (supported by PRS Foundation). The tour will visit 4 UK cities, showcasing Saloni’s distinctive fusion of Pop, R&B and South Asian influences. As one of the first UK artists to incorporate multiple South Asian languages into original music, Saloni is building a unique space within the British music landscape. The tour will feature a live band, special guest artists and performances of both fan favourites and new material, while creating opportunities for emerging South Asian talent through support slots. Following a BBC One performance, 20 million+ views for viral single Bhalo Lage, and appearances at Wembley Arena, BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend and the Southbank Centre, the tour marks a significant step in Saloni’s growth as a national touring artist.
