Anoushka Hemangini Shankar (born 9 June 1981) is a British-American[1][2] sitar player and musician of Indian descent,[3][4] as well as occasional writer and actor. She performs across multiple genres and styles—classical and contemporary, acoustic and electronic.[5][6] In addition to releasing seven solo studio albums beginning with Anoushka (1998), she has also worked alongside a wide variety of musicians, including Karsh Kale on the full-length collaboration Breathing Under Water (2007) and her father Ravi Shankar. She has received nine[7] Grammy Awards nominations and was the first musician of Indian origin to perform live and to serve as a presenter at the ceremony.[8] She was the youngest and first woman to receive a British House of Commons Shield.
