Featured on the 3rd Saturday of every month, Non Stop Bhangra (NSB) is a legendary world music monthly event in San Francisco, which over the course of over 4 years has ballooned into one of the most exciting live experiences.

Celebrating the North Indian sound of Bhangra, Non Stop Bhangra (NSB) is so much more than just the typical club night! NSB is a low-key, fun, energetic, and vibrant experience that combines dj's, dance lesson & performances, drummers, mc's, & an ever growing cast of live musicians, along with visuals, and live painting all dedicated to sharing the spirit of Bhangra and keeping the vibe focused on making you dance nonstop.

Non Stop Bhangra was born in 2004 when Dholrhythms founders Vicki Virk and Suman Raj teamed up with Dj Jimmy Love to provide a dance night for students of Dholrhythms Bhangra classes. The First NSB was hosted to celebrate the one year anniversary of Dholrhythms. The night went from zero to sixty, and a grass roots word of mouth movement began culminating in a phenomenal monthly which has become a popular staple of San Francisco culture.

NSB is a huge destination creating sold out nights and write-ups in all the local papers as one of the best dance floor nights in San Francisco and the trend of people seeking out this music continues to grow.

Every month NSB welcomes an eclectic group of the most cutting edge Dj's and Live Performers to join them in the mix for unique Bhangra sets. NSB is a genre-busting elixir of North Indian Bhangra music and dance, shaken with hip hop, reggae, and house music.

In addition to this monthly night, Non Stop Bhangra Collective has performed at San Francisco’s famous Stern Grove Festival, Power to the Peaceful Festival and shared the stage with artists such as Anoushka Shankar, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Zigi Marley, Karsh Kale, Delhi 2 Dublin, State of Bengal, B-Side Players, Dengue Fever, Cheb i Sabbah, and more.

“Global grooves rarely taste as good as what you will find at Non Stop Bhangra. A night unlike any other & A treat for the eyes and ears, NSB will take your body and soul to whole new realms.”
-–NITEVIBE--

“Didn't those festivities in "Monsoon Wedding" seem like the best party in the world? Attending the recent "Nonstop Bhangra" at San Francisco's Rickshaw Stop felt as if you'd been invited to just such a celebration.”
--SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE--

“What’s bringing urban club kids and middle-aged Indian immigrants together onto sweaty dance floors, gleefully stomping their feet and raising their arms in unison? At the aptly named Nonstop Bhangra party at San Francisco’s Rickshaw Stop, DJs alternate classic with cutting-edge tracks, while guest musicians join in on the dhol drums and other classic Indian instruments. There, 20-something indie rockers learn traditional dance moves and play air sitar alongside die-hards from the South Bay nostalgic for home.”
--SAN FRANCISCO MAGAZINE--

“NonStop Bhangra delivers the whole Punjabi enchilada to the heart of mini-mono scensterdom, Rickshaw Stop. Professional dance performances, lessons for beginners, live painting and drumming, superduper psychedelic visuals, and the fabulous, mini-multicultural sight of people shaking their bangles in glee — what's better?”

Thoughts from those that attend? SOME OF OUR FAVORITE REVIEWS...courtesy of www.yelp.com.

"Non-Stop Bhangra is a big, hot melting pot. Ingredients: Punjabis, Asians, Blacks, Caucasians, Latinos, Bhangra, Hip Hop, Mashups, Bollywood videos, Dhol drumming, Dance performances, Dance lesson, Saris, Jeans, Sweat, Bliss. Directions: Add heat, mix, and enjoy."

"I have never, ever in my whole entire life had so much fun at a club! The beats are intoxicating! "

"Five stars all the way. Music here is so groovy it will get you up and dancing whether or not you have a buzz. The crowd here is very diverse and everyone seems to come here for only one thing, to have a really good time."

"love the overall vibe of the people on the floor sans the attitude and pretentiousness, while the mix of bhangra and a hint of hip-hop is near hypnotic."

"NSB is a collective --of DJs, dancers and dhol players-- who clearly love and want to spread the love of Bhangra music and dancing, SO MUCH FUN you cannot help but smile and laugh your ass off the entire time."

"there's no pretention going on here, just pure unadulterated dancing and fun, so you can pretty much wear whatever you want and let your hair down.(The DJs are great. The music is infectious. There's a dhol player on the dance floor (that's live drumming for the uninitiated). There are dance lessons and performances by Vicki Virk and her troupe of dancers, and if Vicki doesn't make you smile and dare to make a fool of yourself during the dance lesson, then there just might be something wrong with you. Like you need to loosen up, or go rediscover your inner child."

"I dare you to check out NSB if you haven't already. And be sure to show up early enough for the dance lesson. Life is too short not to experience this kind of joy."

"I had an amazing time. I don't think I've ever stayed at the Rickshaw for so long before. The music rocks and absolutely everyone dances! The whole place is bangin'.

I *know* I'm going to have a good time when I go. The only other sure happiness bet I know in the bay area is the sea otter tank at the Monterey Bay Aquarium and that's too far to drive on a regular basis."

"the crowd was diverse, talent, age and ethnicity-wise, and the music was awesome (michael jackson + dhol beats = sweet!) i will definitely be back!"

"Nonstop, booty-shaking, hip swaying fun! Although I'm not built like Beyonce, I felt pretty bootilcious at the end of the night. My only complaint is they only hold it once monthly!"
