As NPR noted of Red Baraat at their Tiny Desk Concert: Red Barrat is "one of the best party bands around, Red Baarat plays rollicking funk music steeped in Northern India's wedding celebrations, with a dash of D.C. go-go beats and hip-hop." The dance-friendly group performed a loud, high-energy set at the NPR Music offices that you can watch above.
