Virtuoso electric bass player Shez Raja and his world-class band will be performing their unique brand of Indo-jazz funk.

Shez leads a stunning line-up tonight that features legendary Soft Machine guitarist John Etheridge (Nigel Kennedy, Pat Metheny) and Indo-jazz star clarinettist Arun Ghosh.

This concert includes material from their brand new album 'Journey to Shambhala', which tells the tale of a young man who embarks on an adventure to discover the mystical city of Shambhala. The album was recorded with US guitar genius Wayne Krantz and Indian percussion guru Trilok Gurtu (whose unique vocal percussion samples are included in the concert production).

The group will also be performing music from their previous highly acclaimed album ‘Gurutopia’, recorded with global jazz legends Randy Brecker and Mike Stern.

The band's live show is an eclectic headcharge of raw energy and always leaves audiences uplifted, inspired and asking for more.

Expect exciting music that’s full of surprises – a sonic kaleidoscope of euphoric jazz, thundering funk, tuneful ragas and intoxicating grooves!
