Jhumur folk song is a traditional musical form that dates back to ancient times and originates from the red-soiled regions on the western frontier of West Bengal. This musical form is mainly popular among the local artisan communities and various tribal groups such as the Santhal, Munda, Oraon, Kharia, and Birharh tribes. Jhumur melodies and moves are distinctive and significant due to their cultural and literary significance, attributed to the use of ancient language. The lyrics of Jhumur songs are deeply rooted in the cultural and social history of the region. Different Jhumur tunes are sung throughout the year based on the season, such as Chaitali sung in the spring month of Chaitra, and Bhaduria sung in the month of Bhadra. Jhumur songs reflect the rich heritage and cultural diversity of West Bengal, making them an essential part of the region's musical identity.
