Anoushka Shankar is a true cross-cultural musician. Her interest in multi-genre and modern forms of music is illustrated by her previous Grammy-nominated albums Rise, Traveller and Traces of You. However the ancient Indian classical form she was handed down from her father Ravi Shankar is always the central current running through her work.

With the aim of bringing together a variety of cultural experiences and attitudes as organically as possible, Anoushka fuses Eastern influences with electronica mixed with traditional acoustic performance and supported by an ensemble of Western and Eastern musicians, Anoushka will again explore this fascinating world.

In support of her highly anticipated new album, Anoushka will be joined by hang player and percussionist Manu Delago Sanjeev Shankar on shehnai and tanpura, and live electronics.
