Kaki: The Songstress of Thar

In that deep guttural desert voice, Kaki sings songs of valour and love. Unadorned by superfluous musical instruments, her voice reaches out and barrels up towards the bright sky. Aptly named the ‘Songstress of the Thar’ she begins her rituals as the sun begins to gently ebb over the horizon at the hour known as gao dhuli, a beautiful metaphor describing the onset of the evening when the dust rises, darkening the sky, thrown up by the returning cattle. Kaki is a legend in her environs.
