Coolie's Chorus presents fourteen Malaysian Tamil folksongs across a range of genres, including lullabies, work songs, laments, and romance songs. More than a historical restoration, Gogularaajan captures a conversation rooted in call-and-response, improvisation, and experience. 

As folk singers from Tamil Nadu respond to one another's prompts and ideas, the songs are coaxed into being, occupying a space between memory and imagination. Many of them express longing for a distant homeland as they reckon with their present land of Malaya. 

By bringing together deep knowledge of Tamil folksong traditions with diasporic memory, Coolie's Chorus enacts a homecoming, not to recover what was lost, but to carry forward their voices as a missive of their experience.
