As well as being a multi-instrumentalist, music producer, songwriter and one of the longest established Western players of the kora, Ravi also leads Voice Activation Events. These events are the result of a lifetime exploring the edge, through world music, tribal cultures and a journey that has taken him from India to the Amazon. There have also been over 20 albums, international performances and workshops, the invention of the electric/stereo kora and collaborations with a diverse array of artists such as Nigel Kennedy, Jon Lord, Phil Manzanera, Baaba Maal, Dr John, Ronu Majumdar and Marlui Miranda.
