Bollywood music is definitely a big part of Indian music and can be a great way to introduce people to the sound. But I hope to continue to incorporate other types of Indian music into my work.
I love Indian music very much, but I haven't studied that specifically.
I've been writing Indian music for a while. Indian music is about Mother Earth, and mine is no exception.
Maybe I'm genetically more inclined to music - but the music I make is so far removed from Indian classical music. I grew up in Texas!
I don't listen to Bollywood music much. But yes, I listen to Indian music quite often, and other non- film music.

My CD collection has a lot of world music - lots of Indian, African, Portuguese, Greek, Italian music. Because of my husband, a lot of jazz, too.
My music and lyrics became an extension of this Indian philosophy.

Dream Song of Thunders: Sometimes I go about pitying Myself, While I am carried by the wind Across the sky.
I basically love classical music. I love a lot of musicians playing together and the whole culture of that, whether it's Indian or it's Western.
I listen to a wide range of music, from country to pop to alternative rock, as well as Indian music. You know, what excites me are new ideas. And with a lot of the international hits - from Lady Gaga to Rihanna and others - you'd find excellent produ...
Indian food is like classical music raga- it takes time to build up to a crescendo.
