Ashwin Batish is a British-Indian musician best known for blending traditional Indian music with Western rock, jazz, and world music influences. A master sitar player, Ashwin gained international recognition with his groundbreaking "Sitar Power" series, where he fused classical Indian ragas with high-energy electric guitar riffs and drum beats. His innovative style has introduced generations of listeners to the sitar in new and exciting contexts.
