Mishra & Deepa Shakthi with support from Wednesday's Wolves

We are thrilled to welcome Mishra & Deepa Shakthi to Harwell Village Hall.

In 2022, Danny Kyle award winning global-folk band Mishra began a new cross cultural collaboration with international fusion vocalist Deepa Shakthi. The resulting album 'Turn O Spinning Wheel', set for release in October 2025, is brimming with multilingually reimagined folk songs, new compositions, and swirling Celtic melodies underpinned by hypnotic qawwali grooves. Mishra, who have extensively toured the UK and had BBC R2 airplay for their 2 previous albums, draw from UK folk roots and an instrumental palette including low whistle, tabla, banjo, clarinet, and double bass. Deepa Shakthi (formerly Deepa Nair Rasiya) has a vast repertoire of songs from the Indian subcontinent and over 30 years experience of performing in cross-cultural projects, which has seen her work with Opera North, Kuljit Bhamra, London Contemporary Voices, and even Ravi Shankar and George Harrison on the album ‘Chants of India’. When Mishra and Deepa get on stage together, their joyous performances are a journey of contrasts, from hand-clapping trance-like sufi songs to spacious stillness and reflection. They are touring the release of their new album this November.

Support is from Oxfordshire based Wednesday's Wolves.

Doors at 7pm, music at 7:40pm
