Bhai Shamsher Singh Zakhmi

Bhai Shamsher Singh Zakhmi was born in the village of Manko in the Jalandhar district of Punjab into the home of Bhai Daulat Singh Ji and Mata Raj Kaur Ji. His father and his grandfather, Bhai Fateh Singh Ji were both renowned Raagis of their time as was Bhai Daulat Singh Ji’s older brother, Bhai Sardara Singh Ji who used to play the taus. Bhai Shamsher Singh Ji was the younger brother of Bhai Dharam Singh Zakhmi. Along with their other brother, Bhai Gursharan Singh Zakhmi (Phuman Singh), they formed a jatha and started to perform Kirtan. Although all three brothers had received their initial training from  their father and grandfather, they were also sent to the renowned Prof. Darshan Singh Komal to further their journey into Gurmat Sangeet. Under his guidance, they learned many old compositions passed down to Komal Ji from Bhai Sain Ditta Ji. Some of Komal Ji’s other notable students include Bhai Didar Singh Nangal, Bhai Chanan Singh Majboor, Bhai Sital Singh Sitara and Bhai Beant Singh Bijli among many others.

Around 1960, Bhai Dharam Singh Zakhmi’s son, Bhai Amrik Singh Zakhmi joined the jatha and played the dilruba with them. Soon after, Bhai Gursharan Singh Zakhmi migrated to England and to fill up this void, Bhai Dharam Singh Zakhmi’s other son, Bhai Hariqbal Singh Ji started to play tabla. This jatha consisting the four of them continued to enthrall the world over with their beautiful Kirtan for almost 20 years until the death of Bhai Dharam Singh Zakhmi on 19th January 1980.  

It was after this time that Bhai Shamsher Singh Ji formed his own jatha with Bhai Mohanpal Singh Ji on his side and Bhai Akaal Singh Ji on tabla. They toured a few countries such as the UK, USA and Canada with this jatha. They were extensively recorded during these tours thanks to a few great people whose foresight has allowed us to enjoy these wonderful recordings. One interesting fact to note regarding the passing of Bhai Shamsher Singh Zakhmi is that he took his last breath exactly 8 years after Bhai Dharam Singh Ji on the 19th of January 1988 in Delhi. A short while before that he asked his aunt, “Chachi Ji, today is the day that brother left us isn’t it?”, to which she replied “Yes”. He performed his daily Nitnem and then went back to bed. At around 6 a.m. when his family checked on him, they found that he had passed away. If anyone has more recordings of the Zakhmi family, please contact us.
