JazzTimes calls Sonny Singh’s music, “vibrant, ebullient, and energized… a prayer for our ailing world.” Launched in 2020, his solo project centers the Sikh concept of chardi kala — revolutionary eternal optimism — also the name of his debut 2022 album, which received accolades from NPR Music, Songlines, Bandcamp Daily, Rolling Stone India, Grammy.com, KEXP, and more. Sonny has performed his music at the Brooklyn Museum, Lincoln Center, Lotus World Music Festival, and the White House. His latest album Sage Warrior was released in September 2024 alongside a book by the same name by Valarie Kaur, after which he went on a 40+ city tour around the United States together sharing ancestral music and stories of revolutionary love. Sonny is also an original member of the celebrated bhangra brass band Red Baraat and a longtime social justice educator and activist.
