Indus brings together four instrumentalists with roots in diverse musical genres, including Indian, Western & Jazz. Drawn together by a shared desire to create new approaches to music-making & to explore the full potential of their instruments, Indus skilfully navigate through uncharted & ever-changing musical terrain. The result is a unique sound that is a new musical language unto itself - one that reflects the group’s integrity, sensitivity & aspirational vision. Indus is Mohamed Assani (Sitar), John Ball (Santoor), Shahbaz Hussain (Tabla) & Henrik Linnemann (Flute).
Indus are currently touring the UK with the generous support of the Arts Council England. For more information, please visit the band’s website.
