2018 WORLD MUSIC | Autorickshaw | | The JUNO Awards

Canadian Indo-fusion ensemble Autorickshaw has been called one of the most interesting acts on the world music landscape, garnering JUNO nominations for World Music Album of the Year, the John Lennon Grand Prize in World Music and numerous other awards. Autorickshaw has been called a "post-fusion" ensemble for their seamless blend of jazz, folk, pop and Indian classical music. Their sound showcases the sultry, sophisticated vocals of Suba Sankaran, anchored by the driving bass-lines & beatboxing of Dylan Bell over a bed of intricate tabla grooves by Ed Hanley. The group’s diverse repertoire and range of Eastern and Western elements could only come from musicians with deep roots in both traditions. Autorickshaw has toured extensively across Canada, the US, the UK, Europe, India and Nepal.
