The band stepped into its 25th year on April 1. Nepathya has planned several activities including periodic releases of new and old songs and videos as a part of the celebration. According to a statement, Nepathya has decided to dedicate this year to all the musical icons of Nepal for their contribution to Nepali music. As a mark of honour to the adhunik genre of Nepali music, Nepathya will also support Nepalaya to restart their Paleti concert series. “Our band members had contributed their skills to the Paleti during its initial period,” Nepathya front man Amrit Gurung informed, “Now, we want to support it for its continuity.” Likewise, the band would host a show in Pokhara on April 8. Vocalist Gurung informed, “It is a pleasant coincident that our silver jubilee calendar will kick off from a show in our home town.”
