Part 2 continues with Vancouver being the Indian Music artist capital of the world!
Sarabjit Cheema has tasted success out of Vancouver as well. In 1994, Sarabjit's first album hit the roadways around the world with the folk anthem Rangla Punjab. Sarabjit has not looked back since, and just recently released a folk album titled ONLY FOLK. This albums is strictly folk music, and has to be Sarabjit Cheema's most innovative and best album byfar.
Harbhajan Mann has been the longest resident of Vancouver and he started singing in 19771978 as an amateur as he was still in high school in the Vancouver area. He, alongside with brother Gursewak started being known more and more and were performing at functions around the city. Harbhajan released his first album in 1988 - Ishq De Mamle. This did not do that well as an album, however he did start to build a small, yet excited fan base. Harbhajan Mann got his first break in 1992 with the release of his album, Chithiye Ni Chithiye. The title track and the album blew the Indian Music fans around the world apart and thus the start of Harbhajan Mann as an artist with god gifted talens was recognized and born. Now he stars in at least one Indian film a year and releases at least one Indian Music audio album a year, usually 1 Punjabi and 1 Hindi/Punjabi mixed!
