Anoushka Shankar - Chapter II: How Dark It Is Before Dawn '2024

Tracks list

Anoushka Shankar, the acclaimed sitar player, producer and composer, shares the
second instalment of the trilogy of mini-albums she began with ‘Chapter I:
Forever, For Now’ in October 2023.

‘Chapter II: How Dark it Is Before Dawn’ will be released on vinyl
and via all digital platforms on April 5, 2024. The series follows Between
Us..., her live album for LEITER, a collaboration with Jules Buckley and the
Metropole Orkest nominated for 2023’s Best Global Music Album Grammy.
After an Australian and Indian tour in January, Shankar also continues
presenting her music live, with further European dates beginning in April.

‘Chapter II: How Dark it Is Before Dawn’ was recorded during
sessions with British producer and composer Peter Raeburn in his two Soundtree
Studios, first in May, 2023 in LA, where Shankar had just performed her father
Ravi’s Sitar Concerto No. 3 with the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, then
in London in September, 2023 before she set out on her North American tour. It
finds Shankar expanding her horizons, both artistically and sonically, exploring
a mesmeric, at times almost ambient soundscape.
