Bhai Daya Singh Ji roots are entwined with the sacred Rababi lineage. He is the eldest of five brothers and two sisters born into the home of Bhai Tarlochan Singh. Second to him, Bhai Baljinder Singh provided accompaniment on the ‘Tabla’, while their middle brother, Bhai Surinder Singh backed on vocals and the side harmonium. Younger to them, Bhai Baldev Singh, was a diligent disciple of the renowned percussionist, Baba Nihal Singh. It is to be noted that ‘Tabla’ master, Ustad Jindi Ji is a disciple of Bhai Baldev Singh. Bhai Ranjit Singh ‘Rana’, the youngest brother, possessed a melodic voice which was honed under the tutelage of Bhai Chanan Singh Majboor and Ustad Puran Shah Koti.<\/p>\n

Both their sisters were married into the Rababi family of Bhai Jaswant Singh Ji from Nankana Sahib. Their elder sister was married to Bhai Prithipal Singh, and the younger sister was married to Bhai Mahinderpal Singh ‘Laddoo’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The ‘Jatha’ of Bhai Daya Singh and his brothers was one of the very few that employed a stringed instrument such as the ‘Dilruba’ during their Kirtan in the 1980s. They served as Hazoori Raagis at Takhat Sri Patna Sahib for many years. They have also toured several countries including the United Kingdom (UK) and the United States of America (USA). Currently, Bhai Daya Singh Ji is based in the UK. If anyone has more photos or recordings of Bhai Daya Singh Ji to share, please contact us.<\/p>\n
