"Sakura 桜" by JAWARI from their debut album 'ROAD RASA'

The melodies for this song were inspired by the traditional Japanese folk song "Sakura Sakura" and Pt. Ravi Shankar's "Improvisation on the Theme of Rokudan" (East Greets East), which itself is based on the traditional folk song "Rokudan" and its corresponding Raag Gunkali. Infused with elements of ethio-jazz, our interpretation of these pieces was captured by Zaki Solosho in this unique live version, filmed at House of Annetta, a collaborative space for arts, activism, and systems change.
