In Valmutty, a small village in Kerala’s Palakkad district, music is woven into everyday life. Home to generations of folk musicians, the village has now been officially recognised as Kerala’s first ‘Pattu Gramam’ (Music Village). The title honours a living musical tradition sustained through memory, devotion and community.
