Shephali Frost Ensemble

A unique, world music band based in the UK. Shephali Frost Ensemble combine medieval folk music from Asia with modern British poetry & jazz, to give a powerful, new voice to contemporary world music.

Journeying from slow, contemplative compositions to rhythmic numbers, their audiences travel between meditative repose & impromptu dance. When English spoken-word and lyrics weave in with Shephali’s repertoire in Sanskrit, Urdu, Saraiki, Farsi, Pashto, Arabic & Hindi, a joined-up world truly takes shape.

After having concluded her phenomenally UK tour in 2023 called, ‘Ancestral Voices with Shephali Frost Ensemble,’ she brings a quartet to perform under Luke Jerram’s installation Gaia at Lincoln Cathedral on the 20 of Feb 2024.
