About Me

Know Me a Little

Coming from an Indo-German background, I now live in London and create indie-folk music with a touch of Indianness to it. Being a kid who moved from place to place, school to school, country to country, my one constant was music! While in school, I was the kid in the choir, learning to play the piano, but my piano teacher had already caught on that I was more into singing! Lucky for me, she was also a vocal coach and worked on both with me. Immeditately after finished school I jumped into studying psychology, but halfway through I thought, nahhhh, this isn’t quite my thing. Around this time, I picked up a guitar and like all beginners taught myself the first four chords. Take a wild guess which ones those were! Boom, covid hit, and we all got locked up, giving me some extra time to think. I wanted to be a musician, sing, perform. Worked on my social media, decided I didn’t want to be dependent on anyone and I wrote my first song! Two years later we landed in the city where my dreams took more shape and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to do that than ICMP, London. Now we’re here, three years later, with a completed degree in music, a psychology degree collecting dust (kind of), one EP, loads of performances and loads more to come!

P.s. I love dogs, coffee and bubbles… and music of course!

Get in touch with me!

I absolutely would love to hear from you!

Proof that I'm a musician

In the time between the 19th of March and 17th of July, I released 3 songs!! (Hold for applause)

Kidding… hehe, I am proud though, of myself. Won’t you be?! You can listen to them on all music platforms, give them a try! 🙂

I also release demos every now and then on Soundcloud, and will be releasing more stuff soon on band camp, which I’m planning on making my primary platform from now on.

A little bit about these three songs and the EP

Coalesce, means coming together. Being my first EP, I wanted to showcase who I am to my future listeners. The songs in the EP are emotional, dramatic, fun, but also warm and calming. They were all recorded live with my wonderful band and friends! Shout out to Chris, Mallikah, Gracie, Laís, Roxy, Big and Lil Nat and Mase!

Home (For Paati): This song started the day my paati, my grandma, passed away. It’s a last call to her, a last little conversation asking her to make me that gajra, sit and have a coffee with me while we play rummy, before she goes for her afternoon nap.

Broken Bridges: Took me almost three years to write! Multiple versions, multiple re-writes and multiple f* its later, here we are. It was a difficult one to write and the lyrics speak for themself, I think. It’s about trying to salvage a relationship you feel is breaking, one you really really don’t want breaking, but it’s also hurting too much. (It didn’t break guys! And I can’t be happier about that!)

(Won’t) Shoot Myself: I love brackets in my song names, don’t I XD This is my favourite one of all, I think. It was originally written about the word prompt: Gun Crimes. My tutor made me realise, however, that it wasn’t just a fun song! It’s about having multiple versions of your personality for different friend groups/family, but not changing who you are at your core… Oh my my, look at me being all philosophical!!

Gigs

Catch me in the act!

Come, watch me be awkard but entertaining on stage!! Get proof that I actually do perform…
