Tell Me More

Kabir Suman lived in the US and worked as a radio broadcaster for the Voice of America. His real name is Suman Chattopadhyay. He has often been credited with creating a new genre of music in Bengal which is deceptively simple, with lyrics that reflect common life experiences. He is sometimes referred to as the Nagorik Kobial. His music reflects on social mores and is often directly political. Suman draws from a very long and deep tradition of Bengali music, absorbing multiple genres including pop, light classical, film music and folk.
