The Road to Converse Rubber Tracks saw its regional rounds in five cities across India – Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai, Pune and Guwahati where the five most voted bands in each city went head to head to earn a slot in the season finale. Over 350 emerging bands from around the country applied for this opportunity. And now the final five finalists from each city will participate in the finale at blueFROG, Mumbai.

Shaa'ir + Func are an alternative electronic music duo from Mumbai, comprised of Monica Dogra and Randolph Correia. Along with S + F, Chennai indie rock act, and the winners of the Road to Converse Rubber Tracks in India season one, The F16's will also headline the gig. 

Each city finalist has recorded a song at a studio in their city, and done a special photo shoot before heading to Mumbai. The Road to Converse Rubber Tracks in India, Season Two finale will see these five bands play for a chance at a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - an all expenses paid trip to record at the Converse Rubber Tracks studio in Brooklyn, New York.
