Learn about Chai & Jam

Chai & Jam

Chai & Jam is an innovative concert series, founded by Hasheel & Seyblu, that brings together Indian Classical, Jazz, R&B, and cross-cultural artists in a spontaneous improvised format where performers meet for the first time on stage. This experience encourages fearless improvisation, where artists rely on their training, intuition, and openness to create something entirely new in the moment.

Each curated concert features 4–6 musicians from diverse musical backgrounds. These artists, each skilled improvisers and eager collaborators, represent a strong lineage within their artform and perform together completely unrehearsed — blending traditions, experimenting across genres, and creating one-of-a-kind live experiences.

The Museum’s Performing Arts programming is generously supported by the Nanji Family Foundation.
