It was a very pleasant evening. Bhoomi really knows how to connect with their audience, whether in a rural village in West Bengal or the United Nations in New York. Bangla band were the first to make the United Nations and also the first to occur at the Festival de Jazz de Montréal.

It redefines the presentation of Bengali folk music in many ways and many bands follow their path.

The only complaint I have is that often when I hear an accent mixing rural Bhoomi Singer-sophisticated urban Bengali accent in their music, I feel uncomfortable. Not everything not seem right to me. Not in the league of traditional folk music I'm used to. But as someone pointed out to me, perhaps the way in Bengali is spoken in these days in rural Bengal is changing and I am not aware of this development at all.
