Jack Jennings ~ Indian Classical Guitarist
Jack is a disciple of world-renowned sitarists Roopa Panesar and Shakir Parvez Khan, who have guided him to develop a deep Classically-rooted approach, while exploring the potential of the guitar as a new voice within Indian Classical music.
He has worked closely with other great Indian musicians such as Pandit Sanju Sahai, Manish Pingle, Gurdain Rayatt, Kuljit Bhamra and Chandra Chakraborty. Also from the London Jazz scene Omar Puente, Shanti Jayasinha, Domenico Angarano and Arthur Newell are involved in his upcoming live and studio projects. Under the name Nataraja, a live album titled 'Spirit At Play' was released in March 2024 on Geomagnetic Records. This album was recorded in full, on stage, with no second takes whatsoever. It is this creative, spontaneous environment that gives the music its power. Imagine Jimi Hendrix following in the footsteps of Ravi Shankar, that's the spirit of this music. There are more releases coming soon, so stayed tuned and register for free membership to join the mailing list for updates and special offers. |
