Spinifex presents the new project SPINIFEX SINGS, featuring Priya Purushothaman (from the US, based in Mumbai) and Icelandic singer Björk Nielsdottir.

Priya Purushothaman and Björk Nielsdottir are both among the most prodigious voices of their generation; Priya in the Hindustani Classical Music genre, and Björk in contemporary classical music and music theatre as well as in improvised music....
