Shubha Mudgal's vocals can lift your mood on even the greyest of days

The Hindustani classical singer Shubha Mudgal effortlessly showcased her versatility with the thumping and joyous Ab Ke Sawan. Soaring vocals showcase her impeccable mastery in the title track, while lyricist Prasoon Joshi conjures magical imagery of the monsoon. Although a classical singer, Mudgal is equally at ease here with ragas as she is with Indipop, and the album cuts cross-genre in an otherwise Bollywood-dominated music scene. Immerse yourself in the earthy sounds of Ab Ke Sawan.
