Kailash Kailasa Kher’s singing loud and far — he’s teaming up with Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder for a world concert.
“My New York based lawyer, who manages rock stars, is looking after this collaboration,” says Kher.
The concert will happen early next year and is to be a tribute to the legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. In 1995, Khan collaborated with Vedder for the soundtrack of Dead Man Walking.
Will there be an Indian venue for the concert? “Sadly not, the Indian government doesn’t value things like this, there are lots of taxes involved…it’ll only be in New York,” says Kher.
So will Kher rock, or will Vedder sing Sufi? “Neither! We’ll both do our own thing and just jam… merge a common song or two.”
