Thankful for all the love for new release Interior Landscapes!
Joel ‘Veena’ Eisenkramer is an exponent of the Indian classical guitar or 20-stringed Indian slide guitar from Vermont, USA. A journey that started with an epiphany after listening to a CD while on a study-abroad trip in Delhi has, over the years since 2007, transformed Joel into one of the dynamic young artists of Hindustani classical and fusion today. Joel's concert tours have taken him all over India, Europe and the US while learning under and eventually performing alongside some of the greats of Indian music. He is currently receiving advanced talim from sarod maestro Pt. Alok Lahiri and under his expert tutelage has received the approval of the Indian music fraternity granting notable performances such as the 2019 Kumbh Mela, ICCR Delhi and at the CODARTS University of World Music in Rotterdam. "I play music to heal, to transmute, to bring calm and focus and to empower.”
