    Entering a trance-like state with Wahh World Fusion Band in front of you is a rite of passage for any self-respecting Tampa Bay music lover.

    Technically fronted by tabla maestro and vocalist Shankh Lahiri, Waah (stylized in all-caps) is a veritable megatron of Bay area super musicians. Sitar player Kanad Hari, guitarists Peter mongaya and Thomas Griggs, Elias Tona and Seth Lynn on bass, Guianna and Ona Kirei on vocals, plus Michael Washington and Patrick Hernly on percussion help Lahiri bring to life world music that features life giving drones, a potent mix of eastern and western melodies, plus the occasional reworking of familiar pop megahits.


    The next best chance to see Wahh in action is at the Tampa Bay Indian and World Music Festival happening on Sept. 29.
