Genre-defying composer/percussionist Sarathy Korwar is one of the exciting artists lined up for the Southbank Centre’s inaugural South Asian Sounds festival and is my special guest on this week’s A World in London. We’ve met at various gigs since lockdown, for Pulse, Dialled In, and Daytimers UK, but it’s through this radio interview that I’ve learnt much more about the stories and inspirations behind Sarathy’s music. Raised in India on a diet of geology, Jazz, and Jimi Hendrix, Sarathy has forged a formidable presence on London’s music scene and beyond, signing to cool labels like Leaf and Coldcut’s Ninja Tune, touring solo and with Anoushka Shankar globally, and making musical waves with urban jazz, spoken word artists, and rarely heard Siddi folk musicians! Hear Sarathy’s candid interview, plus an exclusive preview of his forthcoming EP, ‘Kalak:Live in Mumbai’, on Resonance 104.4fm, Wednesday 28th February at 6.30pm, or anytime worldwide at Mixcloud/DJRitu.
