THE EARLY BIRD SHOW W/ MARIA SOMERVILLE & Brad Urman

Drifting into a new day with Maria Somerville, live from Ireland's wild west coast.

IN FOCUS: ZAKIR HUSSAIN

Two hours of exploratory Indian classical sounds from legendary tabla player and percussionist Zakir Hussain, selected by Arushi Jain. "When Zakir Hussain died last December, the world lost not only an immensely talented tabla player and percussionist, arguably the greatest of his generation, but also an extraordinary philosopher of sound. Via his band Shanti, as well as his many collaborations with artists like George Harrison, The Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart, Ravi Shankar, Herbie Hancock, Shivkumar Sharma Béla Fleck, Charles Lloyd, and Yo-Yo Ma, Hussain merged North and South Indian music as well as jazz, Western classical, and tabla to extraordinary effect. His music was effervescent, curious and dynamic." - Arushi
