Jonita Gandhi, a trailblazing Punjabi songstress, has been announced as a performer at India’s largest music festival, Lollapalooza India, set to take place on March 8th. This performance marks a historic moment as it is one of the biggest slots ever given to a South Asian artist at the festival and as she takes the stage immediately prior to Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Shawn Mendes.
Jonita has recently released Channa, the follow-up single to her 2024 debut EP, Love Like That, which has earned her a nomination for ‘South Asian Music Recording of the Year’ at the 54th Juno Awards. The Canadian artist has already made waves as an opening act for major pop tours, including Ed Sheeran’s tour stop in Chennai, India, on February 5th, and opening for global sensation Dua Lipa at her Zomato Feeding India concert in Mumbai in November 2024. She has also performed alongside Bollywood giants like Arijit Singh, further amplifying her global presence and expanding her audience.
Jonita is the first female artist signed to 91 North Records and has 16 million monthly listeners and over 2.2 billion streams across music platforms. A dynamic fusion of Canadian and Indian heritage shapes her artistry, reflecting her resilient determination. She has recently had the great honor of opening for Dua Lipa and Ed Sheeran during their India tours and performing her original music to their audiences, receiving so much love.
Jonita is excited about the new music that’s on the horizon and looking forward to sharing it with everyone. Lollapalooza India, set to take place on March 8, is set to be a historic moment for her as she takes the stage immediately prior to Grammy Award-winning artist Shawn Mendes.
In addition to her success as an opening act for major pop tours, Jonita has also performed alongside Bollywood giants like Arijit Singh, further amplifying her global presence and expanding her audience.
