Fatima A Laboni

Poetry

I'm Fatema A. Laboni, a visual artist and performing poet from Bangladesh. A graduate of Dhaka Art College, I use art and spoken word to explore love, loss, memory, and the quiet emotions that connect us all. Through my work, I hope to create honest conversations and meaningful human connections.

Hena

Poetry

I'm Hena, and I've been writing since childhood. So far, I've published four books and am currently working as a Creative Supervisor at an advertising agency, where creativity is part of my everyday work. I also write regularly for newspapers. Poetry is especially close to my heart, and I love performing my own poems. My artistic journey has always been shaped by a passion for storytelling, creativity, and expressing myself through words.

Nafis Jawad Rahman

Music

I love covering songs of powerhouse artists and I love it when the crowd is super nice. Basically starting out with open mics, I hope to make it a regular thing. I related to the wise words of Benjamin 'Benji' Applebaum: "Performing live gives me such a rush".

Samiha Tahsin

Poetry

Poetry has been a more constant and consistent part of my life than almost anything else.I’ve been writing poetry my whole life, starting pretty early back when I was 7 years old. It’s the way I find myself and make sense of the world around me. After so many years, I think I got the writing part down. Now it’s time for the sharing part. Because I believe even though the writing of the poetry is an entirely personal and solitary experience, poetry itself is meant to be a shared and communal experience where the same set of words get assigned entirely different meanings in different minds and provides a solace unique to each individual.That is the magic of poetry. So here goes!

Tananze

Poetry

In my life of disagreements, disappointments and despairs I have found scantuary in knowledge and art. They both have, hand in hand, pacified my torturous mournings for humanity and to some extent eroded my darkness. A very small amount of these I occasionally achieve and a smaller amount of those achievements I plan on sharing here. In the least, I hope it eases your loneliness like it eases mine.

Team DIL

Other

We're three people who make it up as we go. I trained at the Academy of Improvisation in Sydney, studying under Cindy Tonkin and Richard Bennett, and spent years performing with improv groups across the city. Dhaka Improv Lab is the country's first structured improv theatre school, and the two people on stage with me will be students from its founding batch three weeks ago they'd never done this. We have not performed as a group yet.

Bingsho

Music

Hello im a 17 year old hip hop artist who is trying to bring the new school western sound in Bangladesh. Im trying to do something different in a scene where every bit of music is very similar and repetitive. Every other so called rappers are now doing the same old stuff which is pretty monotonous at this point. I think if i get this chance to perform i can introduce people to a new side of Bangladeshi Hip Hop. I have submitted a song above and i have another coming out.

Coldkraft & Ragemode

Music

Coldkraft and Ragemode are two separate entities with a common goal and vision, Coldkraft is a lyricist and a performer whereas Ragemode is a producer and DJ. We have been working together on various projects including Coldkrafts debut EP "Iceman" which is set to release soon. Both the artists are focused on experimenting and exploring different kinds of sounds and vibes that complement their own roots, cultural identity while paradoxically trying to to remain out of their comfort zones. Our musical roots belong to Hip-Hop and Rap music but we are keen on delving intro other genres i.e. jazz, house, funk, pop, industrial, progressive, alternative, etc. We are also looking to build a community of open minded individuals that are keen on establishing a platform for future generations and also to keep the wave of Bangladeshi music flowing.

Housecat

Music

Been writing and composing originals for so long, without a platform to perform or express apart from my uni. I cant write on wish or command, it just occassionally strikes me like a lightning bolt, a ‘message’ about my own feelings, which i have to convert into lyrics with tune as soon as possible because once i get distracted, its almost impossible to finish the lyrics later on.

Projukta Deb

Music

Singing has always been one of my favorite hobbies, particularly classical music and Rabindra Sangeet. Although I’m a bit out of practice, my friends have encouraged me to perform again. I’m considering singing Purano Shei Diner Kotha and Can’t Help Falling in Love.

Ruby

Poetry

I've been writing poetry and short stories as a way to express how i view the world, my emotions, and love. I never thought I would recite then in front of people but when I did, I heard them say they felt something. And wallflower gave me the chance to do that. To make me feel like I've fulfilled a purpose.

Hi! This is Efty. Although I work in Environmental sector, I am a magician by passion. I started growing interest in magic 11 years ago, that was also the time when I learned the first magic trick. Why do I love magic? Because I love to make people feel amazed, surprised and sometimes shocked. Also, magic allows me to connect with people's emotion. It feels truly magical. I have been performing magic for quite some time. I want to keep performing magic as long as I live.

I learned classical music from when I was 3, but the big dream was to always be a popstar.

Sourav Babna

Music

For as long as I can remember, my words have carried a melody. I never had formal musical training, but the internet became my classroom and my favorite artists became my mentors. By blending their influence with my love for poetry, I’ve found my own voice, a unique style of musical storytelling rooted in philosophy and poetry.

Suraiya Hena

Poetry

I work as a Creative Supervisor in an advertising agency, where storytelling and creativity shape my everyday life. My artistic journey began in school, with poems in the margins of notebooks and sketches finding their way onto paper. Over the years, my writings have appeared in newspapers, magazines and I have published four books, including two poetry books with my own hand-drawn artwork. Beyond my profession, I remain a reader, a writer, and a painter, someone who believes that words and colours can give shape to emotions that often remain unspoken.

Tashdid Ashrar

Stand-up Comedy

Been around 6 years since I first got up on stage for my first stand-up performance and I don't remember a single moment, since then, when I didn't want to do this. Till date, every time I have performed I have figured or discovered something which makes me want to do this more. Hence, even after being a very small and insignificant one, my journey has been absolutely delightful.

Zandra Bazin

Music

My music journey started from Nazrul Academy back when I was six years old, then in Darjeeling, later in Chayyanaut. Even though, I’ve spent more time practising raags and kheyals in institution, American pop music occupied my heart conscientiously at home or anywhere I would go. Apparently, other than harmonium, I didn’t take up on learning any other instrument, however, the heart sings what it feels and I feel my emotions are better expressed in english so I use backtrack mostly. Nonetheless, I am flexible with languages and genres, something my background in music shaped. I made my first song debut as a 16 year old in a song named “ Proticchobi “ by the band “ Bagdhara “, where I made special appearance. That’s the only song I have out there in Youtube with 24m views. That’s all.
