GALTICHA SATRANG (Independent)
Hearing the intricate pulsating sway of Galitcha is like savouring the flavour of an exotic dish: there are too many ingredients to pinpoint each one but their combination is overwhelming. The versatile trio ­- Kuljit Sodhi, Chris MacLean and Linsey Wellman - whips up a striking cultural stew with Satrang - a first-rate collection of East Indian folk songs and sparkling instrumentals meticulously fused with tasteful elements of jazz, flamenco, Celtic rhythms, Chinese classical, and a host of western and world flourishes. It sounds complex on paper: saxophones, banjos, harmonium, and flutes side by side with tabla, cello guitar, fiddle and dulcimer to name but a few of the instruments on desplay. But Galitcha - not to mention the fine supporting cast - is always precise and purposeful in its creative presentation, allowing the burning passion of the songs to take centre stage. (Steve Baylin)

Halifax Herald - By Stephen Pedersen / Arts Reporter CONCERT REVIEW

myBindi.com Concert Review - by Mohamad - March 30th, 2003 show at Hugh's Room in Toronto

From Old Chestnuts Newsletter - October 2003 * Volume 9, Number 1
Galitcha knocked my socks off. I love world-music’s eclectic mix, and Galitcha provide all that in abundance as they play an array of instruments and sing in Urdu, Punjabi, and Hindi, with explanations in English or French. They bring East and West together in a most satisfying way. And they have fun with it.
