Pandit Brij Bhushan Kabra (Jodhpur, Rajasthan, 1937 – 12 April 2018) was an Indian musician who popularized the slide guitar as an instrument in Indian classical music. Kabra was born in 1937 to Goverdhanlal Kabra in Jodhpur where he spent his youth. He was interested in sports and listened to Indian classical music but did not intend to become a musician and trained as a geologist. During a visit to Kolkata he discovered the Hawaiian lap slide guitar and convinced his father to let learn it by promising to only play classical music.
