The Tabla Guy
For those of you in the LA area planning on attending the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles, be sure to check out some of the musical talent that will be highlighted throughout the week in conjunction with the festival. Gurpreet Chana, aka The Tabla Guy, will be performing…
Tabla player Gurpreet has been taught in the Punjab Gharana (style) from his Ustad Ji Professor Parshotam Singh. He started by playing at the Gurdawara with kirtan and continues to do so. Gurpreet’s passion for percussion instruments has led him to experiment with other world beats and percussion instruments such as the djembe, congas, cajon, dhol, zarb and daf.
You can listen to some of his beats on his website and here’s a video of him performing during the Toronto Raptors halftime show:

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to catch this performance last week while attending the IFFLA. The audience loved it.
Oh and on a similar musical note (ha!), another band who you may be interested in is Black Mahal out of San Francisco. I just heard them recently, and they are awesome.

An educated person is kind. He has the sense of empathy in himself which allows him to better understand the situations through which others might be suffering from. So he is the kind of person who understands others.
