Rajasthani folk artist Mame Khan has been very busy in the last two years of the Covid-19 pandemic. It is because the Indian playback singer was working on his latest album, ‘A Desert Rose’. The album, he says, is his attempt to not create music for the moment but for a long time to come and a single doesn’t do that just yet.
The new album has six songs that are a testament of his soulful voice, that people have seen over the years and it is evident with ‘Rajasthan Express’ and ‘Sajde’, that has already been released from it among others. If you haven’t come across it just yet, then you are definitely in for a treat whether or not you like folk music. It would be ideal to remind you of music created by him that include ‘Baware’ from ‘Luck By Chance’, ‘Aitbaar’ from ‘No One Killed Jessica’ and most recently ‘Nakhralo’ from Dasvi. In one of six songs called ‘Saawan’, Khan has collaborated with some of the biggest names in the music industry including Taufiq Qureshi and Gino Banks, among others; it is an experience that he is definitely going to cherish in the years to come.
