Havells mYOUsic Expands to Jharkhand for Indie Talent

India’s independent music scene is receiving another major boost as Havells mYOUsic expands to Jharkhand for the very first time. Following the overwhelming response in Delhi and Indore, the artist-first initiative is now arriving in Dumka to provide aspiring musicians with an opportunity to showcase their original work, receive expert mentorship, and connect with leading industry professionals.

Scheduled for July 12, 2026, at the Convention Centre in Dumka, the auditions promise to be much more than a conventional talent hunt. Instead, Havells mYOUsic aims to create a nurturing ecosystem where emerging artists can learn, collaborate, and grow while contributing to India’s flourishing independent music movement.

A Platform Dedicated to Original Talent

From the very beginning, Havells mYOUsic has focused on celebrating originality. Rather than rewarding cover performances, the platform encourages singers, rappers, lyricists, composers, singer-songwriters, and music producers to present their own creative work.

As a result, the initiative has quickly become a preferred destination for independent musicians looking to establish themselves in the industry. After successful editions in Delhi and Indore, Havells mYOUsic has recorded more than 2,200 registrations, with over 700 artists participating in on-ground auditions. Additionally, numerous musicians from across the country have submitted their entries online, highlighting the growing demand for platforms that genuinely support independent creators.

However, despite the abundance of talent, many artists still struggle to gain visibility because they lack access to industry networks, mentorship, and professional opportunities. This is precisely the gap Havells mYOUsic aims to bridge.

Why Dumka Is an Important Milestone

This latest chapter is particularly significant because it marks Havells mYOUsic’s first-ever venture into Jharkhand. The state boasts a rich musical heritage and is home to countless gifted performers whose talent often remains confined to local audiences.

By bringing the auditions to Dumka, the initiative is making national-level opportunities more accessible to regional artists. Moreover, instead of expecting musicians to travel to metropolitan cities, Havells mYOUsic is taking the platform directly to them, ensuring that geography does not become a barrier to success.

At the same time, the initiative celebrates the unique sounds, traditions, and cultural stories that emerge from different parts of India, strengthening the country’s vibrant independent music landscape.

More Than Just a Talent Hunt

Unlike traditional music competitions that primarily focus on winners, Havells mYOUsic is designed around artist development.

Throughout the audition process, participants receive valuable feedback from experienced music professionals who understand today’s entertainment industry. In addition, they gain practical insights into songwriting, music production, live performances, branding, audience engagement, and career building.

Furthermore, the platform encourages collaboration instead of rivalry. By interacting with fellow musicians and mentors, participants can exchange ideas, build lasting relationships, and explore fresh creative possibilities that extend well beyond the auditions.

Learning from Industry Leaders

One of the biggest highlights of Havells mYOUsic is its impressive panel of mentors and industry experts.

Previous editions featured renowned personalities including Sandesh Shandilya, Osho Jain, Tarsame Mittal, Rohith Sobti, Laksh Maheshwari, Geet Sagar, Jatin Bisht, Amit Sharma, Siddharth Pandit, Vasav Vashisht, Moon, Uzma A. Khan, Rumpa Banerjee, and Dr. Vishal Chaturvedi.

Through interactive sessions and one-on-one guidance, these experts shared practical knowledge about songwriting, music production, performance techniques, and navigating today’s evolving music industry.

Meanwhile, live performances by artists such as YUGM, Osho Jain, Laksh Maheshwari, Harshad Golesar, Duhita Golesar, The Shloka, and Buland Himalay transformed every edition into a celebration of India’s growing independent music community.

Beyond Auditions: A Structured Artist Bootcamp

The journey doesn’t end once the auditions conclude.

Artists selected from the Dumka chapter will move on to an exclusive bootcamp later this year, where they will collaborate closely with experienced mentors to create original music and audio-visual content.

More importantly, participants will receive support across music production, branding, content creation, marketing, and distribution. Consequently, Havells mYOUsic goes beyond simply identifying talent—it actively equips artists with the resources they need to build sustainable careers.

Strengthening India’s Independent Music Ecosystem

Today, India’s music industry is evolving faster than ever before. Thanks to streaming platforms and social media, independent artists have greater opportunities to release their work. Nevertheless, gaining visibility in an increasingly competitive market remains a major challenge.

This is where Havells mYOUsic plays a meaningful role. By combining mentorship, industry exposure, networking opportunities, and professional guidance, the initiative helps emerging musicians navigate the complexities of building successful careers.

As more artists from regional communities gain access to these opportunities, India’s independent music ecosystem becomes increasingly diverse, inclusive, and representative of the country’s rich cultural heritage.

A Movement That Continues to Grow

At its core, Havells mYOUsic is driven by a simple yet powerful belief: talent should never be limited by geography or the lack of opportunity.

With every new city, the initiative uncovers fresh voices, celebrates diverse musical traditions, and creates pathways for emerging artists to reach wider audiences. Consequently, each edition contributes to strengthening India’s independent music movement while inspiring more creators to pursue their artistic dreams.

As Havells mYOUsic arrives in Dumka, it continues to build an inclusive platform where originality, creativity, collaboration, and mentorship remain at the heart of every performance.
