When Parallel Lines Meet - Manisha Shahane CD

Product Description Bollyfolk Bhajazz is what she calls it. Mumbai and Southern Virginia converge in a kaleidoscope of Kate Bush, Norah Jones, Loreena McKennitt, & Susheela Raman. A 2008, 2009, & 2010 recipient of the ASCAPlus Award in the Jazz and Popular Division, Manisha Shahane is bridging hemispheres with her second album. Shahane brings over a decade of experience as a performing songwriter to this project featuring her as a singer, songwriter, pianist, composer, arranger and co-producer, working alongside fellow producer Daniel Cantor. Cantor recently added African Underground Vol.1 (Nomadic Wax) and a cut for In the Name of Love: Africa Salutes U2 (Shout Factory) to his numerous production credits. When Parallel Lines Meet showcases an array of instrumentation resulting in music of this universe, a lyric that Shahane penned for the album s opening track, titled Girls Gone World. Exceptional performances are delivered by Brahim Fribgane (oud), Mark Simcox (cello), Kevin Barry (lap steel guitar), Chris Brenne (guitar), George Ruckert (sarod), Iyeoka Ivie Okoawo (spoken word), and Akili Jamal Haynes (trumpet, bass clarinet, trombone). Returning from Shahane s Peace in Progress album (2004) are Blake Newman (upright bass), Jerry Leake (tabla/multi-percussion), and Dominique Gagne (flute). Members of her Los Angeles-based trio are also introduced, as are the voices of children. The CD comes in an environmentally friendly packaging, complete with liner notes and lyrics booklet. Review The whole album is actually pulling you towards worldly beats and experiences...There is a sense of authenticity and a clear-headed approach in her story telling and singing which tends to touch your inner spirits...Manisha Shahane comes across as a naturally gifted talent with a very compassionate and loving heart...her music is fresh, uncluttered and right from the heart with a true universal vibe to it. --Raj Yadav, MastRadioAdditional Info: Recording information: Notable Productions; Studio Of Barry Lowitz, Los Angeles, CA.
