A brief history of SUGAR FIRE by Richard Dalby

In 2005, I was invited to take part in an 'Electronica Fest', and this sparked off a new period of writing, collaborating on several tracks with Grenadan born drummer & poet, Judah Allen.  

I was honoured to perform alongside two Classical Indian vocalists, Sarvamangala Shankar & Rashmi Manjunatha.  Shantha Rao, the highly respected classical Indian dancer, also performed to a re-mix track featuring the vocals of David Sylvian.  Their grace and sublime performances made it an incredibly special concert.

In April 2006 I performed at the 'Concert for Tibet'. The line up again featured Judah Allen, as well as Mick West on trumpet and electric guitar.

I recently released my debut CD called 'Concert for Tibet'.

It features performances from the 'Concert for Tibet', as well as 'Bhajan' with Rashmi & Sarvamangala's astonishing vocals, re-mastered studio tracks, and re-mixes by CalderValium & Chemical Monkey.  All profits from the concert and CD are donated to humanitarian projects within Tibet.
