This isn’t just a big moment for GATC—it’s a proud chapter in the history of Sikkim’s legacy and Indian rock.

After Assam’s Binita Chettri wowed everyone with her performance on the stage of Britain’s Got Talent, and won the second runners up spot in the global reality talent show, another group of artistes from Northeast, Girish and The Chronicles (GATC), Sikkim’s most iconic rock export, is making history as the first-ever rock band from India to be featured on one of the biggest entertainment platforms in the world – America’s Got Talent (AGT).

Earlier this year, in March 2025, GATC flew to Hollywood, California, USA, for their AGT performance that promises to showcase Sikkim and India’s talented rockers at its finest to a worldwide audience.
