Jaswinder Singh!! A Young Ghazal Maestro!! The best among all contemporaries!!

Image
Jaswinder singh is the most promising and dedicated ghazal singer of the contemporary music world. He has done lot of hard work on his singing, style and silky melodies voice to standout among the ghazal maestros. It’s always said that someone has been blessed with gifted voice but I never do agree with this approach because it shows that someone is been blessed with gifted talent only and he doesn’t work hard. I believe that if one has god gifted talent then one needs to do more polish on it and it requires pure hard work, true passion and dedication, which can be felt in jawinder’s singing undoubtedly. Currently we could find the most untrained voices in the industry and they all are surviving because of the good money and jack. But in Jaswinder’s case it’s not like that he proved himself with his own unique style and presentations.

If you split up Lal Meri  into Nancy Kaye , Ireesh Lal , and Carmen Rizzo , you get 3 different artists with a range of styles that don't really need proper introductions. There talent has been combined to make a fantastic new electronic pop group with lots of promise. Their self-titled debut album highly recommended for those of you who dig loungey pop, good synthy vibes and beats. It's a hint of Zero 7, positivity, Brazilian girls etc. Satnam Ramgotra on the Tabla behind Nancy on the videos. So Dope ;) Lal Meri takes its name from an ancient Sufi folk song, part of a mystical tradition that helped to expand the reach of Islam around the world in centuries past. Ecstatic, transcendental Sufi art forms were used to draw people in through direct experience, bypassing dogma and authoritarianism. And, in a sense, that's just what this unusual trio is all about — unifying listeners of different cultures, beliefs and aesthetics with an irresistibly seductive sound. They
