New Delhi, July 20 : His fans love to hear his
old numbers, but Punjabi singer Gurdas Maan plans to belt out songs from
his new album " Roti" during his US tour that starts Saturday in
Chicago. "I can never sing my old songs. They come as a special
demand from my fans. In fact, a lot of time I don't get a chance to sing
anything new because my listeners love my old tracks a lot. But I have
prepared a new album ' Roti' and I will sing some of the new tracks of
the album," Maan said in a statement. "It is very important that I
give my listeners something new to listen to every time I perform. It
is my duty to do so, as soon those songs will also become old and they
will make me sing them again and again," added the 55-year-old. After
Chicago he will perform in Cleveland July 22; Bakersfield July 28;
Fresno July 29; Sacramento Aug 4; Salem on Aug 5; San Francisco Aug 11;
Houston Aug 12; Washington DC Aug 17; and finally New York's Colden
Auditorium will witness the finale Aug 18. Mann, known for giving
Punjabi Music a global face, started his career with his hit number
"Dil da maamla hai" in 1981 and there was no looking back. He gave hits
like " Akhiyaan udeek dian" and " Chaklo chaklo". © IANS |
