Career
A high energy performer, singer, song writer, and recording artist, Jeffrey Iqbal began his musical career, at the age of 10. Born in the U.S.A, Jeffrey's parents immediately realized his talent for music. Right away, Jeffrey started developing an understanding of North Indian classical vocal, becoming skilled with the harmonium and dexterous on the tabla. But what he really wanted to do was sing. He later expanded his training to include ghazals and qawalis. Today, Jeffrey performs around the world sharing his unique blend of American and Asian cultures, singing in over 5 languages, and promoting his mission of "Unity Thru Music."
Recognition
In 2007, Jeffrey was selected by A.R. Rahman-the Oscar®-, Golden Globe-, and Grammy®-award winning composer of Slumdog Millionaire-during a televised talent search to appear on Zee TV's Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. This made him the first American-born artist to represent the U.S. on the most prestigious South Asian-televised singing competition. On the show, Jeffrey toured the world with such artists as Shreya Ghoshal, and became the first American-born musician to sing for a Bollywood film
