Rasool Khan

Rasool Khan is from Jaisalmer and has been entertaining people from the age of 14 with his music. He is a singer and has learned from his grandfather Baghe Khan. Simple, humble and not very talkative, Rasool Khan explains about his music with a sense of calm, and with a composed articulated manner. Being a Manganiyar he is a born musician and can have songs in his treasure right from birth to death and for all the occasions. Rasool is a very simple gentleman who believes in simple living and following ones’ passion with the whole heart. He can sing in all the raags.

When it comes to studies he hasn’t attended school but still remembers the age-old songs coming from generations just like that. He now feels that education is very important and therefore he made sure that his children are studying. He wants his children to study more than him and become a competent person in life such that they cannot be fooled. Apart from music he also drives auto in the city of Jaisalmer for some extra earnings. The music is infinite, and the possibilities of his melodies are endless. The music itself is so vast that it cannot be confined to a textbook and standardized, as there are no set standards for learning music which is imbibed in his blood through generations.
