About
JAMkeyJAM is a musical concept started by two young & talented musicians from Nepal (Nabin & Bijay) where the traditional music goes contemporary. The idea is to make the thousands of years of old classical ragas and Nepali traditional & folk music fit in today’s world without killing its essence; all while JAMkeyJAM delivers in their own unique style. It is about perpetuating a tradition that exists since time immemorial.
Featured Musicians
Nabin
Nabin Shrestha, a renowned face amongst the Coloradans is a classical tabla virtuoso of the highest order. His consistently brilliant and exciting performances have not only established him as one of the prominent musicians in his own country, Nepal, but gained him worldwide fame. His deep understanding of different traditional styles of tabla playing, tonal quality, clarity and ability to collaborate with different genres of music makes him different from regular percussionists and it’s no surprise that he’s the favorite accompanist for many musicians and dancers.
Bijay
Bijay Lal Shrestha was born to Tabla Maestro Rabin Lal Shrestha and Sitar player Bina Shrestha. Coming from a musical family, Bijay started learning Tabla at the tender age of four under the guidance of his father and by the time he was 18, he completed a masters degree in Tabla. Currently, he is majoring in sitar (Master degree) at Lalitkala campus under the guidance of Sitar Maestra Uma Thapa being the only young artiste in Nepal to have achieved degree in both tabla and sitar.
