Mishra

Global-folk band Mishra and award-winning Indian classical/Sufi vocalist Deepa Shakthi have unveiled the video for their second single, “Akhiyaan Udeek Diyaan,” a fresh interpretation of a song by the legendary Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, widely regarded as the greatest and most influential qawwal of modern times. The single is set for release on September 26th ahead of their debut collaborative album, Turn O Spinning Wheel, due out next month.

Global-folk collective Mishra have announced their first collaborative album with acclaimed Indian classical/Sufi vocalist Deepa Shakthi. Titled ‘Turn O Spinning Wheel’ and out October 17, the record fuses English folk with Sufi song. The hypnotic first single, ‘Kite’, built on an Irish jig structure, will be released next week on August 11 ahead of the group’s extensive UK autumn tour.

Our Song of the Day is Devil’s Nine Questions, the new single from the global folk collective Mishra, joined by Indian classical vocalist Deepa Shakthi. It really is an outstanding single.

To celebrate the 90th anniversary of the mass trespass of Kinder Scout, members of the Sheffield and Leeds folk scene perform Ewan MacColl’s The Manchester Rambler on Kinder Scout in Peak District National Park.

It’s not often that, at first listen, an album almost literally takes your breath away. But Mishra’s ‘Reclaim’ bristles with vibrant energy and has a freshness and lightness of touch that did just that.
