Some artists bring the music. @livingfree91 brings the whole vibe.✨

A singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and traveller at heart, Bryan has spent the last decade turning everyday stories into songs that make people dance, stomp and sing along. From playing across 30+ cities to being picked among Nexa Music’s Top 24, he’s built a sound that’s as infectious as it is heartfelt.

And Bryan is no stranger to Sofar. ❤️
After joining us for our 5th Anniversary gig, our Sofar alumnus was back for August — and boy, did he bring the groove!

His set had the room moving, singing along and completely caught up in the moment. The kind of set where you don’t just listen to the songs… you find yourself becoming part of them.

@livingfree91 it was so good having you back.
Same artist. Same infectious energy. A whole new Sofar night. 🕺🎶

50 GIGS. HALF A CENTURY OF SOFAR GOA. ONE UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT. ❤️🎶

September marked a very special milestone for Sofar Sounds Goa — our 50th gig! Half a century of bringing intimate live music experiences to Goa. We celebrated it at a picturesque little corner of Salvador Do Mundo where green fields and an endless sky seemed to play with each other as we began the evening. 🌿☁️🎶

Our home for the night was @sensible.earth — a collectively driven organisation nurturing ideas and action towards a planet where human activity isn’t just resource neutral, but resource positive. And what a beautiful setting it was to gather, listen and celebrate live music.

As the evening unfolded, our incredible artists @anukritising.h @sharlaine.music @rocketrajamusic brought their own sound, stories and energy to the room, while our lovely audience gave them all the love they deserved. There were voices joining in, feet keeping time and plenty of smiles all around. ❤️

And then there was @siacafegoa making sure the music had some serious competition! 😋 Their dhabeli, vada pav and delicious munchies fuelled both our bodies and souls.

A big cheers to our drink partners @roarwithsimba @soberandcoindia and @terrysentme for keeping everyone refreshed and grooving through the evening. 🍻

But we have to talk about the newest addition to the Sofar bar — the Terry Sent Me Afterglow Edition. 💚 Distinctly green. Fresh with cucumber and honeydew melon. 🥒🍈
We tasted it, we loved it, and judging by how quickly everyone got into the groove, so did the crowd! Definitely a crowd favourite and one Afterglow we’re happy to remember. ✨

A heartfelt thank you to @sanjivkhandelwal and the entire Sensible Earth team for opening up this beautiful space and hosting us so warmly.

And to our amazing artists, volunteers and every one of you who showed up— thank you for bringing your energy, your curiosity and your love for music.

September was one for the books. A gig to remember, in a setting we won’t forget anytime soon. ❤️🎶

We asked 3 people to describe their Sofar experience… and got 3 completely different answers. ❤️

For some, it’s about breaking barriers.
For some, it’s an absolute jewel.
And for some, it’s become a ritual.

Different words. Different experiences.
But somehow, one shared feeling. ✨

3 people. 3 answers. One Sofar feeling.

Now tell us — what does Sofar mean to you? 👀

Always grateful for our partners @roarwithsimba @soberandcoindia @terrysentme ✨

You don't necessarily need to drink a Jameson to play with these Jenga blocks....any other drink will do too 😁

Suwaddo is where every evening becomes a fun game night...or you could just sit back & watch the fun. With a wide collection of boardgames that we have, or bring one along with your squad.
What can we say, we are building memorable moments block by block ❤️

What happens when you put a room full of strangers together… and tell them to PLAY? 🎲😂

Apparently — this.

Big laughs. Ridiculous challenges. Questionable acting. Competitive energy. Complete strangers cheering for each other like lifelong teammates… and a room that got louder, sillier and more connected with every round.

Game of Humans was never really about the games.
The games were just the excuse 😉

It was a social experiment disguised as a game night — and you humans absolutely understood the assignment ❤️

And yes… we’re doing it again 👀
Details will come out soon!!

🇮🇳🎶 JAI SOFAR! 🎶🇮🇳

We came for the music. We stayed for the vibes. And somewhere between the songs, “Jai Sofar!” became the unofficial anthem of the night. 😂❤️

Our August gig took us to a beautiful private villa in Bastora, where three incredible artists gave us plenty to sing about — quite literally.

Because this audience didn’t just listen. You sang along in rhythm, found the groove together, and turned the room into one giant chorus. That moment? EPIC. 🔥

And then there was Jimmy 🐶 — the cutest English Cocker Spaniel and possibly the best Sofar host we’ve ever had. He welcomed everyone, supervised the evening and seemed thoroughly invested in the music. Pretty sure he’s a fan now.

Huge love to our artists @b3nding_mind @livingfree91 @asherera_ @bento_stev3 @thepoeticthorne @yashabzz venue hosts @lumbarjunction volunteers, partners @roarwithsimba @soberandcoindia @terrysentme and every one of you who showed up and made Bastora feel like home for the night.

WARNING:
These Photos May Make You Wish You Were There.

Because honestly… July at @suwaddo was that kind of night.

People walked in as strangers, found their spots, grabbed a drink — and then the first note played. Suddenly, the room belonged to the music. 🎶

Three incredible artists. @himanshu.c_ @salmanelahi_ @sidharthbendi Three completely different sounds. And one unforgettable evening filled with goosebumps, laughter, quiet moments and plenty of applause.

Swipe through and you’ll find the music, but also everything around it — the backstage madness, artists hanging out, friends meeting friends, spontaneous smiles and those little moments nobody planned but everyone remembers.

To our artists— thank you for bringing your music, stories and magic to our community. You left a little piece of yourselves behind. ❤️

To our guests— thank you for listening, discovering, cheering and being completely present. You are what turns a gig into a Sofar night.

And to Suwaddo— thank you for giving this beautiful evening a home. 🫶

To our partners @roarwithsimba @terrysentme @soberandcoindia and our incredible volunteers, thank you for everything seen and unseen. You know the magic is never made by one person.

July was a night. These photos are the proof. The memories are ours.✨

✨ June gave us the kind of magic only the monsoons can. 🌧️🎶

Nestled within the timeless charm of the Vintage @pintovilla_goa @ahren.pinto @menezeschristabel in St. Cruz, we spent an evening where the rain became part of the soundtrack, the old walls echoed with melodies, and every note felt just a little more special.

These photographs hold more than memories—they hold moments. The quiet excitement before the doors opened, conversations over warm smiles, the gentle rhythm of the rain outside, and a room full of people completely lost in the music.

Three incredible artists @smrutijalpur @gulshanjmusic @parshuraavan Three distinct genres. Three unique journeys. Yet somehow, every performance found its way into our hearts, leaving the audience inspired, moved, and wanting just one more song. That’s the beauty of Sofar—different sounds, one shared experience. ❤️

The rain has long since passed, but these moments still linger.

Here’s to music that finds us, places that inspire us, and memories that stay with us. Until the next Sofar night... ✨

The rains are here... and so is another unforgettable Sofar night. 💙

There’s something magical about music in the monsoon—the sound of raindrops outside, heartfelt melodies inside, and a room full of strangers connected by the same rhythm.

Just intimate performances, unexpected discoveries, and moments you’ll be talking about long after the last song ends. 🎶

Bring your love for live music. We’ll take care of the magic. ☔✨

Seats are limited and they disappear fast.
