Om Rasa on Us Folk
2 years ago
Om Rasa "appeared" on the show recently. OmRasa.com A duo comprised of David Pontibriand on sitar and Shawn P. Russell on percussion, released their debut disc this week with a show and several radio appearances. David has long taught & played classical sitar here in New England, based out of Portland. In partnership with percussionist Shawn Russell they depart the classical to work an improvisational volley.
(note the instrument Shawn plays is a simple ONE jingle 8inch frame drum Yet it sounds like more than just a "few" drums surround him.
Their disc is a stunner, well worth the wait many have asked David for for many years and certainly impetus to record more @ OmRasa.com
recorded in Portland @ the Studio.

Me too.
Apparently 5 minutes there is a little white box to the sitarist's right called a Raganini (really) which puts out a drone tone in the key he is tuning the instrument to.
