Accomplished musician of many genres, former monk infused in spiritual practice, loving wordsmith linking lyrics and rhythm in a blissful musical event, Girish is celebrating the release of his third cd, "Diamonds in the Sun"- a monumental offering of transcendent melodies and earthy grooves. Girish joins his lush, soulful vocals with a global cast of award winning musicians. Sanskrit chants and English lyrics weave with instrumentation from Portland to Pakistan in a fresh, eclectic blend that is by turns intimate, peaceful, and inspiring, and then vibrant, passionate, and playful. A welcome reminder that just below the surface of who we think we are, we all are "Diamonds in The Sun".
With special guest vocalists Donna Delory, C.C. White, & Riffat Sultana.
“With Diamonds in the Sun Girish has found the perfect blend of musical styles, pure inspiration, tender ballads, and that awesome combining of chant form and English lyrics. This is infectious, encompassing music to lift your spirits and soothe your soul.” Lloyd Barde, Backroads Music
