Shankar
Das is a native of Montreal. He has studied tabla with
legendary Alla Rakha and Zakir Hussain in India almost two decades
ago and has since mastered the art of percussion. Drawing on
the influences of Indian classical, folk, Middle Eastern and
tribal rhythms, Shankar has created his own original Eastern
sound and groove. He has toured and performed at numerous festivals
worldwide (Turkey, Greece, England) and has shared the stage
with great performers such as Kani Karacha and Hugh Marsh. Shankar
works with Ragleela since 2004 and had more than 100 concerts
with Uwe Neumann since 2000.
