Gurpeet Singh Chana-
It all started from banging his hands on pots and pans or anything else he could get his hands on to hear and feel the beat. His grandfather Kesar Singh Chana saw this enthusiasm and gave him his first Tabla set and since that moment 28 years ago, there has been no looking back. Gurpreet has been taught in the Punjab Gharana (style) from his Ustad Ji Professor Parshotam Singh.
His passion for percussion has taken him to perform at many music concerts and festivals around the globe. From constantly creating and collaborating amongst his peers, Gurpreet’s music has been repeatedly requested and more importantly remembered for its distinctive sound and moving beats. This has lead him to perform and record with artists such as Nelly Furtado, Wyclef Jean, legendary UK DJ/ Producer Bally Sagoo, Juno Award winning Kiran Ahluwalia, The Bombay Dub Orchestra, Jorane, DJ Rekha, and open for Pete Rock and Lady Sovereign.
Gurpeet was recently featured as guest soloist at The Queen Harish Show at Romarakuda.
