The New Indian Express
|August 16, 2024
IN what could possibly be the first tribal music album of Tamil Nadu, members of the Irular community of Coimbatore and Attappadi region in Kerala have set to music some of their traditional songs that capture their lives and livelihood.
The album, 'Emthu Naadu Mael Nadu', produced with the help of activists, is likely to be released in September.
The cover of the album was released on World Tribal Day (August 9) by Irula singer Nanjiyamma whose 'Kalakkatha' song in Malayalam movie 'Ayyappanum Koshiyum' won her the national award for best playback singer. The album has 11 tracks, all composed and sung by 13 Irulas from different hamlets in the No.4 Veerapandi and Tholampalayam panchayats in Coimbatore and Attappadi regions, respectively.
