About Kultar
Kultar Ahluwalia is a multidisciplinary hip hop artist from Southern Adelaide with Punjabi and Irish roots. At a young age coming to terms with his identity, Kultar found wisdom in the empowering words of revolutionary hip hop artists. Kultar has been releasing and performing music over the last two decades under various pseudonyms and in the group, We Move Like Giants. More recently, Kultar began creating works under his birth name.
In 2023, Kultar was selected as one of six artists in the Nexus Arts Interplay Program. During his time in the program, Kultar created a new stage show and accompanying EP “The Mixed-Race Tape”.
In 2024, “The Mixed-Race Tape” was premiered at OzAsia Festival across two capacity shows at Nexus Arts with glowing reception. Kultar was invited for performances and media appearances on outlets such as ABC Radio National, SBS, Channel 9, themusic.com.au and Glam Adelaide.
In 2025, Kultar took “The Mixed-Race Tape” into new territories across Australia and, as always, hitting the home studio and sharing new music. And, in a full circle moment, Kultar recently commenced working with Nexus Arts supporting and mentoring the next cohort of Interplay artists.
In 2026, Kultar has continued to tour The Mixed-Race Tape at Riverside Theatres and has been busy developing new works through residencies at Adelaide Festival Centre (InSpace) and Sauerbier House culture exchange.
