A work in progress of a new piece, "Battlefield," which is a part of my new album. Battlefield, a piece I created during this lockdown, is inspired by Anand Patwardhan’s 1992 documentary – “Father, Son and Holy War” - which addresses religious fundamentalism. Battlefield is a piece arranged and performed by me, using vocals and mridangam, the primary percussion instrument in Carnatic music. The video was captured and edited by Brian Hashimoto. This piece comes from a place of personal reflection on the two places I consider home: India and the US.
