Nils Berg Cinemascope - Searching For Amazing Talent From Punjab
“Amazing Talent From Punjab” was the title of a YouTube-video that got Nils Berg’s attention. The video featured Laddi Balwinder Signh who improvised a song about the nature and God. A few months after the release of this album the band went to Punjab in search for Laddi. After a week of exploring the music and culture of Punjab, they finally met him and new music was created.
