NECTAR marks the first solo recording for acclaimed worldbeat icon Jai Uttal. Featuring a selection of pagan chants known as kirtans (an ancient call and response method associated with the yoga form Bhakti), Uttal creates a musical sanctity of devotion and bliss. Continuing to build upon the sound he has developed over the last decade, the artist uses instrumentation like tabla, dholak, harmonium and percussion along with western sensibilities for a cross-cultural world-pop fusion. An entrancing work from a landmark performer.
