Rollicking Tibetan folk, afro-reggae guitar grooves and intricate Indian tabla sound as if they were made for each other! Together, Tenzin, Marcello and Shen create a new joyful sound that transcends cultural boundaries. Tibet2Timbuk2 has an eclectic repertoire resulting in an overall sound which is full and organic. All three musicians share melody, harmony, bass and rhythm roles to create a solid, easy groove. Their CD Music is Life includes QSong World Music Award winning piece, Crane Song.
“intensely hypnotic and enchanting... a combination of Africa, India and Tibet, that... has resulted in a musical masterpiece... relaxed, yet energising; ambient yet vigorous... something of interest in every bar, and even after having played it many times, I keep finding something new to listen to.”
