www.akikumar.com | Aki Kumar left his native home in Mumbai, India for the USA with the intention of working as a software engineer. Then he discovered the sounds of the blues. Honing his music chops on the side for years, over time, he successfully blended elements of Indian music into his musical and visual presentation of the blues. Kumar has made multiple appearances at The Hardly Strictly Bluegrass festival, has been featured on PRI “The World,” and has toured in Russia, Scandinavia and South America. His ground-breaking Little Village Foundation albums have garnered international critical acclaim. In 2019 Kumar signed with Sony Music India to release a blues-inspired, bi-lingual album "Dilruba".

Keep up the blues man! Awesome. (although this song isn't exactly blues but still OK 😅) I don't know if u can answer this, but what is/are your favorite harmonica(s)??
Excellent! This looks like the Blue Wing Blues Festival @ the Tallman Hotel in Upper Lake, CA. 9/2024. I only caught about 50% of it. The last night was phenomenal, but I sure wish I had caught you too!
@@akikumar which reverb? I’ve tried a few, but none had that chimy cellar sound like that. It either muddies the tone or has little usable area on the knob.
