TOMORROW: LIVE! on TDMS – Devoted SOULY To The Art Of Music Kiran Ahluwalua kiranmusic Kiran is a modern exponent of the great vocal traditions of India and Pakistan which she honors intensely yet departs from in masterful, personal ways. Her original compositions embody the essence of Indian music while embracing influences from both the West and Africa — specifically the Sahara. With her 5-piece group of electric and acoustic guitar, harmonium, tabla and electric bass, Ahluwalia creates boundary-breaking songs that invite us to explore the human condition, transcending the self by losing ourselves in love. Born in India, raised in Canada and currently living in New York City – Ahluwalia’s last CD, Aam Zameen: Common Ground awarded her a second JUNO Award. Her discography, now six albums deep is one of global music’s most interesting adventures. Her new album, Sanata : Stillness to be released October 2014 is a hybrid of Indo-Saharan music. Its a synthesis of Indian, western jazz and Saharan sounds – all of which she brings into a style uniquely her own. Writing both the words and music for her newest release, Kiran’s songs speak about: the unattainable, both the beloved and the divine, realizing female desire by throwing away all shame, and untying the knots that bind us to stale embraces. Her compositions and arrangements are a reflection of an ongoing quest to create timeless music in a modern and global context that looks to the future while still maintaining a vital line to its storied past.
