Pavan Guru is Sonny’s original rendition of a widely recited poem about the mystical Oneness found in nature, written by Guru Nanak, founder of the Sikh faith (full translation below). Produced by Grammy-nominated bass player and musician Kaveh Rastegar, Pavan Guru begins with layered electric guitar soundscapes and Sonny’s voice soaring, inviting listeners into a space of reflection, before galloping Punjabi rhythms on the dholki and tabla and meditative trumpet melodies lead the way.
“I have been reciting and singing the words in this shabad [devotional song] my whole life,” Sonny explains. “It is humbling to bring my own musical voice and sensibility to these verses that are so special for millions of Sikhs around the world – and to be able to share them with new audiences outside our community.”
