The second edition of the TiLT festival kicks off this weekend. This time, TiLT takes on a new “urban culture festival” avatar. Mixing food, music and err”¦shopping together, the TiLT Festival will take place at three venues – Blue Frog, Busaba and Cafe Zoe – all conveniently located at Mumbai’s Mathuradas Mills compound in Lower Parel. Here’s a rundown of the festival’s music offerings:
