Swarathma is a Bangalore (India) based contemporary folk fusion band that represents the sound of today’s India: rooted in tradition, yet with sights set firmly on the world. The sound is Indian folk and classical blended with reggae, blues and jazz. ​ The band is known for a visually electric stage act featuring faux-folk-horses, Bihari accents, and a Nehru Topis at various times. With music that is strong and beautiful, contemporary and relevant, hard-hitting and tongue-in-cheek, they're one of India's most sought after live acts. Indeed, when one attends a Swarathma gig, one could be (at various points of time) dancing, headbanging, laughing, contemplating, or picking jaw off the floor! With 3 albums (one on EMI), and international tours of the UK, Hong Kong and Singapore, they have managed to export a brand of contemporary Indian music that is exciting and fresh while being strong and beautiful.

I'm a pianist, flutist, guitarist and vocalist. Mainly, I perform Sufi, indian and western classical, soft rock, metal, indie, progressive and bollywood - but open to jazz experimentation as well. I am a songwriter and lyricist as well, having written quite a few originals for music production houses. My aim is to keep collaborating with musicians and create newer and path-breaking music. Prachi and I have recently formed a duo, and we'll be releasing our original album soon - till then, we can always be booked for gigs for any of the aforementioned genres.

I am a vocalist trained particularly in Hindustani Classical Style. I mainly sing genres of classical, semi-classical, folk, pop, rock and jazz. I mostly enjoy singing hindi indie songs and western pop! My aim in music is to create unique music and inspire others to create the same. Danish and I have recently formed a musical duo "The Pariah Kite" and we will be releasing our songs very soon! Till then, we can always be booked for gigs for any of the genres mentioned above! Check out some of the music we have up on here and let us know what you think :)
