Himalchuli [2009]
(a compilation of Nepali songs from Aradhna and Olio)

In 2009, 120,000 Bhutanese refugees of Nepali origin left UN camps in Nepal, where they had been living for 18 years, and re-settled in the West. In response to this influx of people, many of whom are coming to our concerts in bus loads, we have released Himalchuli, a collection of all the Nepali songs on our albums.

Everyone loves Nepali folk songs, because they sound familiar (in a mountain-kingdom kind of way), and flow along with a simplicity that is deeply heart touching.

When we released Himalchuli (which is the name of the Himalayan mountain Chris' family lived at the foot of for the first 12 years of his life) we made it available for free to refugees, and distributed a few thousand in just a few months. The album is now available for sale at regular prices, but can also be obtained in bulk numbers for a very small donation.

Contact Aradhna if you know Bhutanese refugees in your city.
