Prasanna: All Terrain Guitar

Read "All Terrain Guitar" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

As a solo artist, Prasanna (Raga Metal Conversations, Raga Bop Trio) doesn't record that often, but when he does, it's usually an impressive musical statement, incited by his ferocious licks and unique convergence of Indian Carnatic music with a Western muse.
