To
mark U2’s first-ever visit to India, Island Records has announced the release
of a new track titled ‘Ahimsa’ from U2 and legendary composer A.R. Rahman.

Credited
to U2 on digital storefronts the single is now available to stream on JioSaavn.

With
a library of over 50 million songs and award-winning original content,
refreshed frequently, JioSaavn presents wide-ranging audio experiences to its
users. The bringing of the Ahimsa track on JioSaavn echoes the streaming
platform’s commitment to present the best and latest world music to fans across
India and Indian diaspora.

Music
is culture — it’s art and action coming together to shape mindsets, positive
change, and ultimately generations. Great music always carries a real message.
To make great music, move people, and leave a legacy of hope is a living dream
for JioSaavn which it is carrying forward with such unique initiatives.

‘Ahimsa’
– the Sanskrit word for non-violence – celebrates the spiritual diversity of
India and connects the ethos of U2 with the mastery of A.R. Rahman. The
collaboration comes less than one month ahead of U2’s first-ever show in India
with the arrival of The Joshua Tree Tour in Mumbai on 15 December 2019.

The
collaboration sees U2 and A.R. Rahman, two of the biggest artists in the world,
come together with JioSaavn, the largest music streaming service and
development platform for South Asian music and artists, to bring brand new
music to fans new and old across India.

2019
will also see the release of four highlights from U2’s extensive catalogue of
songs, remixed by local Indian artists and available via JioSaavn and other
streaming platforms. Stream ‘Ahimsa’ on JioSaavn today.
