Anoushka Shankar: Wind Down
Apple Music
After a live show, sitarist Anoushka Shankar tunes in to these chill, but by no means sleepy, tracks. “This playlist helps me by starting upbeat, but slowly helping me to mellow and reach a point of relaxation”, she says of the collection spanning critically acclaimed artists working in indie rock, folk and other genres throughout the globe. The whispered intensity of Sufjan Stevens, the pointed, stream-of-consciousness verse of Kate Tempest and the subdued fretwork of Ali Farka Touré are all in her personal mix.
