Songs for the Sangha

Add classical Indian bamboo flute, courtesy of renowned Nepalese bansuri maestro and vocalist Manose, the rock-solid foundation of producer Joby Baker's bass and drums, and UK keyboard wizard Spencer Cozens' jazz-inflected piano contributions, and this very rich, evocative new album. Surrounding themselves with three such fine and diverse musicians, Deva Premal & Miten have transformed their music into a musical magic carpet ride, played exquisitely by an elegant five-piece band.

Translated from Sanskrit, sangha means spiritual family. The golden thread that runs through this record is a sense of harmony, adventure and devotion. Qualities you'd definitely be grateful in any family or community, spiritual or otherwise.
