Sufi music is practised in different regions of the world through myriad genres. In the Indian subcontinent, it finds expression through vocal genres of ghazal, qawwali and various regional folk forms. Based on the verses of mystic poets across the ages, today, these genres have gained mainstream popularity.

Featuring talented folk artistes from Kutch and indigenous  instruments like jodiya pawa or algoza (double flute) alongside Western instruments, the group seeks to embark on a poetic odyssey, rendering the immortal verses of legendary Sufi poets like Kabir, Bulle Shah, Baba Farid, Shah Abdul Latif, Lal Dedh, Mirabai and Rumi. Various facets of love are explored, from passionate and intense to the spiritual and divine, with songs presented in languages including Hindi, Sindhi, Punjabi, Kashmiri and Persian.
