Babel Sound 2019

Love good music? Would like to taste the World? Wish to unwind and discover new voices? Or just want to feel good in a great company at a beautiful place by the Lake Balaton…

Shama Rahman (GBR)

Babel Camp Ruin Bar - july 15. monday 22:30

Shama weaves stories, sitar and song seamlessly in her album "Fable: Time" (2014) and combines with influences from everywhere she has lived and loved. The album has the Sitar musically arranged centrally within layered harmonies and complex grooves ranging keys, sax, violin, guitar, harp, double bass, drums and percussion.

Across 3 continents, she puts World music in context coining: Urban Folk. Shama is a sitar-player, singer/songwriter, composer, multi-instrumentalist, actress/spoken word artist and scientist (PhD in the neuroscience of musical creativity). From jazz to dubstep, punk to folk (Bulgarian, Bengali and English), spoken word, trip hop to hip hop, swing to bosa nova, her stories start life as poems and take flight as cross-genre songs. Poetic Music-with a whole heap of energy! She draws inspiration from Bangladeshi roots, childhood desert landscapes of the Middle East, and colliding with London's vibrant characters to produce songs which are original and insightful with an essence of playfulness.
