Born and raised in the Handsworth district of Birmingham, UK of Indian parentage, singer-songwriter Vijay Kishore has quietly been causing something of a stir musically with his ambiguous folk-tinged fusion of his Anglo-Asian heritage
Bringing favourable comparisons from listeners to everything from the sufi-infused tones of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan to Thom Yorke, Jeff Buckley or even Nina Simone and PJ Harvey.
