Ustad Naseeruddin Saami & The Saami Brothers turned the KEXP studio into a mesmerizing classical oasis on September 4, 2025, delivering two spellbinding pieces: “Khaya Alap In Raag Bhairavi” and “Rain Bina Jag Dohki.” With Ustaad Saami leading on vocals and a lineup featuring harmonium, tabla, sarangi, and rich chorus support, this intimate session showcases the power and subtleties of South Asian classical music.
Behind the scenes, host Darek Mazzone keeps things flowing while Kevin Suggs (audio) and Matt Ogaz (mastering) make sure every nuance shines. A multi-camera shoot by Jim Beckmann, Carlos Cruz, Scott Holpainen, Luke Knecht & Ettie Wahl, edited by Scott Holpainen, captures every angle.
