Traces of You is a musical tribute to the Maestro Late Pandit Ravi Shankar by Anoushka Shankar and a team of internationally acclaimed musicians.

Anoushka Shankar is an Indian sitar player and composer, and daughter of Sitar maestro Late Pt. Ravi Shankar. Among various accolades she has been thrice-nominated for a Grammy Award and was the youngest, and first female, recipient of a House of Commons Shield from the British House of Parliament in 1999. Not only has she been first Indian female and youngest-ever Grammy nominee in the World Music category but she was also the first Indian musician to perform at the Grammy Awards in 2006 when she was nominated for `Rise`. Having performed multiple times at prestigious venues such as the Royal Albert Hall and Carnegie Hall, Anoushka set herself apart at a very early age and has continued to grow as a multi-layered artist and composer and is a leading figure in World music.

Two years after releasing the Grammy-nominated `Traveller`, Anoushka returns with sensational new album `Traces of You`. The album`s music exists in an undefinable space between genres and she has collaborated with the multi-award winning musician Nithin Sawhney to produce the music for this remembrance to her father. Come enjoy a special evening with Anoushka as she seamlessly weaves together Indian music, Western classical, Spanish flamenco and Jazz to create a wonderful ensemble of rich acoustics and melody that punctuate her fantastic instrumental career.
