Substance Seven, a Jain musical band with members from Boston and Chicago performed traditional Jain songs to rock songs composed in traditional Indian musical modes. As Shrenik Shah, the leader of the band explained, "The group tried to make Jain songs available to the modern youth who often find traditional chants quite foreign and monotonous." The group, which includes violin, electric guitar, bass guitar, and keyboards, hopes to rekindle enthusiasm about Jain devotional music among America's young Jains.
