12 Of The Best Spots In Hyderabad For Live Music
Tabula Rasa Cafe & Bar
Located behind Flying Spaghetti Monster, this open-air bar is one of the favourite haunts for folks looking to go out to listen to live music. While artists like Ben Bohmer have performed here in the past, Tabula Rasa is best known for their Telugu band nights where they host the city's best bands every weekend.
