New Delhi, Delhi Dec 24, 2018 (Issuewire.com) - Kabir was a 15th-century Indian mystic poet and saint, whose writings, according to some scholars, influenced Hinduism’s Bhakti movement. Kabir's poems were in vernacular Hindi, borrowing from various dialects including Avadhi, Braj. They cover various aspects of life and call for a loving devotion for God. Most of his work was concerned with devotion, mysticism, and discipline.
Neeraj Arya’s Kabir Café, a Mumbai based popular band is releasing their album Kabir Café Live which features 6 of Kabir’s popular writing into melodious and rhythmic songs. The album is being released by Songdew, the largest music network in India.
Neeraj Arya's Kabir Cafe is a venture where Neeraj, Mukund Ramaswamy, Raman Iyer, Viren Solanki, and Poubuanpou Britto KC strive to present the poetry of Kabir in a musically interesting fashion without compromising its lyrical beauty. Neeraj Arya's 7 years of relentless research in picking up, understanding and performing the verses of Kabir is the backbone behind Kabir Cafe. Largely influenced by renowned Kabir Folk Singer Padmashri Prahladji Tippaniya, Neeraj has pioneered the genre known as Kabir Rock.
“We don't see the Mystic Kabir as a "saint". To us, he is just a human being who had the guts to speak his mind.” Says Neeraj Arya, the lead vocalist of the band,
The album Kabir Café Live features six popular songs of Kabir including Charkha, Amritwani, Man Mast Bhaya, Ghat Ghat, Muniya & Waari Jaaon.
“ We are extremely delighted to bring this album to millions of music lovers across the world who love the music of this extremely talented band. Though the lyrics of these songs were written in the 15th century but it is amazing to see how relevant they are an event today. This outstanding initiative of Neeraj Arya’s Kabir Café would help take the message of Kabir to millions of people across the world.” Says Sunil Khanna founder of Songdew.
