| Subcontinental Drift: Sultans of String - WORLD MUSIC  I was notified that my band Sultans of String have made it onto the Official Ballot for the 59th Annual GRAMMY AWARDS with our CD, SUBCONTINENTAL DRIFT. It's an honor to be placed on the ballot and we need your help to get us into the Final Top 5 Nominees.If you're a voting member of the Recording Academy, we ask for your consideration. Also please share this album with your fellow NARAS members. The Grammy ballots have now been sent to all voting members and must be received by the Academy by November 4. I feel so privileged to be a part of this band and want to do whatever I can to help us reach this goal. This album features special guest/sitar master Anwar Khurshid (Oscar winning Life of Pi).Together we started writing songs about the freedom and equality we experience living here in North America, and our hope of creating a better world. I feel in some way that these songs reflect our own personal journeys towards finding a world peace.
