Women's Raga Massive Compilation v.1 is a garland of songs by contemporary female voices, exploring sounds of the subcontinent and beyond. We are artists, daughters, mothers, sisters, activists and friends, weaving together sonic threads of the past and present. Embodying innovation and honoring age-old traditions of Indian classical music, mystical Sufi songs, jazz, spiritual chanting, storytelling and more, this compilation represents Brooklyn Raga Massive’s growing community. We are proud to present BRM’s first compilation featuring all women-led projects, especially during such a transformative time in the world for women.

100% of proceeds will be donated to Shanti Bhavan Children's Project, a residential school exclusively for children born into India's lowest socioeconomic class. For over 20 years, Shanti Bhavan has empowered children from India's poorest communities to break the cycle of poverty and uplift not only themselves but their families.
