Sikhs Perform US National Anthem

Just in case you missed the video from my twitter stream I thought I would point out a cool video recording that a friend recorded from a basketball game between the Toronto Raptors and New York Knicks. 

Bhai Ongkaar Singh and Jatha sing the USA and Canadian National Anthem, but with a unique and Sikh flavour (Tabla, Harmonium, Dhol and Dilruba). I’ve seen other Sikhs sing the national anthem, but never this way at a public event.

   Just a correction: there was no tabla used during both national anthems but a 5-piece drum set. The rest of the instruments listed are correct.
