If you are bored with Pop music (or should I say Muzak), give a listen to Sheila Chandra. Her voice is wonderful, and she does wonderful things with it. Her music is rich with the tradition of India and also accessible and modern. The title track is quite liberating for an Eastern woman. If you want to explore some new music, Sheila's music is a good place to start.

Sheila Chandra's music is very poetic. She really sings from the heart A++++

As it's label suggests ... this is Indi - Pop. A fussion of east - west influence. In her first solo effort, Sheila displays her ability to not only draw you in with her clear, smooth, vocals; but gives hints of her [later to dominate]use of her voice as truely a musical instrument in itself.

While some may find it "less transcendental" then her more current efforts, it's important to remember this fact in itself lends this album to a much broader appeal. It has both a relaxing and invigorating quality ... perfect for both active listening & passive background music.

As a long time fan, Sheila rocks!
