Chatting with Jagadeesh Ramanujam Mudambi & Madhuri Jagadeesh from Indian fusion band MoonArra

Watford Jazz Junction

In our first crossing to India, we have a fabulous conversation with the talented and entertaining musicians behind the Indian world/jazz fusion band, MoonArra.

Jagadeesh (guitar) and Madhuri (singer & songwriter) share their outlook of the Bangalore (Bengaluru) music scene, talk about the evolution of the band, and playing festivals the world over.

We talk about the power and importance of collaborations, International Jazz Day and critically make a double-addition to our fantasy house-band! :-)

Among their album recommendations, Jagadeesh & Madhuri recommend:

• Night at the Opera by Queen (1975) released on EMI

• Moonsung by Sheila Chandra (1999) released on Real World Records

• Salt Rain by Susheela Raman (2001) released on Narada
