Tabla music never sounded this goodMusic

Stuff Magazine has an incredibly insightful and in-depth feature on the brilliant tabla player Tina Sugandh. Oh who the F@%k am I kidding? Its a fluff piece (and most of it is insulting) but I needed SOME excuse to post this picture.

STUFF: I read that one of your musical influences is White Zombie. What part of their album Make Them Die Slowly do you most identify with?
TINA: Can I just tell you that I grew up in a heavy-metal band doing covers? My claim to fame was that I could play all the major Metallica songs. I hung out with not the greatest crowd. On prom night, everybody was on acid, but I just had a couple of beers. I grew up on Pantera and Skid Row.

I can’t BELIEVE they go here however:

STUFF: Are you well versed in the Kama Sutra?
TINA:When Im married! You dont get into that stuff till youre married.

STUFF: So, are you what Britney Spears once claimed to be?
TINA:I didnt say that, either. The Kama Sutra is about trying different things, and I just believe that if you want to go all crazy, theres no one better to do it with than your husband. Its a belief thing, and people have different beliefs.

I can’t beleive she even answered that question. Still, the fact that she is single gives my life hope.

It's Stuff - of course they ask about sex. It's part of the deal.

Unfortunately, I'm at an age where I see a beautiful woman and think, "Ahhh, I'd just screw it up."

Yeah, I found this little hottie's website a few years ago. She already had an album out and actually had one of her song's on a MTV show, I just can't remember which one. She's also occasionally on AVS on saturdays....now if she would just stop caking on the make up, she's pretty enuff without it;

The entire Sugandh family has actually been doing serious ghazals for years. The baby of the family here is making a pop culture breakout play.

I actually worked with her a couple of weeks ago at a show/concert in dc. She's actually really down to earth and shows a lot of respect to the people that come and see her. On top of that, she's very talented and even plays the guitar. However, she has an ass of a boyfriend that wouldn't even let people that were working backstage stand next to her b/c he thought she might fall in love and leave his sorry ass.

I met her at a show in L.A. She's definitely gonna be huge....it's about time we had an "Indian Diva". (By the way, I met her boyfriend too and he is one of the nicest guys I've ever met...)
