GRAMMY-winning percussionist Bickram Ghosh is arguably one of the greatest tabla maestros alive. His group, Drums of India, is composed of four master drummers from India, playing a variety of traditional Indian drums and supported by the sitar. This ensemble has thrilled audiences throughout the Indian subcontinent.
Ghosh holds the rare distinction of being one of the most well-known names in the world of Indo fusion music. He has performed the world over with some of the greatest names in Indian classical music, including Ravi Shankar. After accompanying Shankar for over a decade, Ghosh went on to form his hugely successful band Rhythmscape, which made him one of the most popular musical stars of his generation. He has played on four GRAMMY-nominated albums, including George Harrison’s Brainwashed. Ghosh also played on the GRAMMY-winning Full Circle with Ravi Shankar. Ghosh’s two extremely successful solo albums, Beyond Rhythmscape and Kingdom of Rhythm, have consolidated his position as a pioneer of a new fusion sound.
