Ganesh, Devi, Shiv Stotra

Something I recorded with my friend Ameya Naik a long time ago. This amazing tongue twister Stotra is said to be written by Shri Aadi Shankaracharya who lived in 8th Century. 
This stotra is close to my heart because of my childhood memories. As a boy who grew up in a traditional family of Rigved Pandits, I have heard this many times. Its amazing rhythmic pattern and powerful pronunciations have attracted me always. 
I have sung this in the traditional tune in which I have heard it for years at my native Belgaum, Karnataka.
Ameya Naik who is a close friend and a well known composer has arranged this track and recorded me in his studio. I thank him for allowing me to share this with you all.
I also thank Raju Dhumal who is always there to support me for his apt Shehnai playing.
Lyrics by the great Aadi Shankaracharya.
Backing Vocals; Chaitanya Paranjape, Damodar Vyas.
