Imphal: Girish and the Chronicles, the acclaimed heavy rock band from Sikkim, arrived in Imphal, Manipur, on Saturday morning ahead of their performance at the Sangai Music Festival 2025 on November 30.
Members of the 7 Sisters Foundation, one of the festival’s organisers, welcomed the band at Imphal airport.
The group has seen a surge in international attention following their high-octane appearance on Season 20 of America’s Got Talent, where they received praise from audiences and judges for their energetic stage presence and classic rock sound.
