SHAAI'R+FUNC
Saturday, September 4th, 2010
Their music includes a heavy dose of experimentation within the popular and cutting edge genres of dance/electronic/and rock music, while retaining a world pop accessibility. In Greek, Mantis means prophet or seer. And it was with that future forward thinking that Randolph Correia and Monica Dogra collectively wrote this third venture, that is saturated with emotive production, confessional story-telling, and Shaa'ir + Func coined tongue-in-cheek anti-politics. This third record in only 4 short years of being a band, is a graduation from the live-electronic elements of "Light Tribe", and the raw-untethered production from "New Day: The Love Album" and solidly in place as a giant leap forward for these pioneers.

An Evening with Pandit Jasraj
Saturday, September 4th, 2010
Pandit Jasraj is blessed with a powerful, voice that can touch any listener with its sheer perfection as it glides dexterously over three and a half octave's. His soaring range, intensely spiritual tone and traditionally classic style have enthralled audiences for decades. He also did extensive research in Haveli Sangeet, and is a major proponent of Mewati gharana. Pandit Jasraj's immpeccable diction and immaculate command of the sur and laya, transports his listeners to a rich and soulful world of bhajans. His most notable contribution to Indian classical music is his conception of a unique and novel jugalbandi, styled on the ancient system of moorchanas, between a male and a female vocalist, each singing in their respective scales and different styles.
