Tanya Shanker: Indie Pop & Live Music Performances

Here is a raw, unfiltered moment of songwriting. This is how many of my songs begin, just me and a piano, turning a feeling into a melody. This snippet of a new heartbreak ballad shows the intimate, personal process of creating a custom song.

This is the official artwork for my rock anthem, "Phoenix." It represents the song's core theme of resilience and rising from challenges. The strong visual style is something I love bringing to my projects, creating a complete artistic package.

Being featured on BBC Sounds was an absolute dream. In this interview, I talk about my musical journey, my influences from rock to pop, and the story behind my song "Phoenix." It gives you a real sense of who I am as an artist.

A glimpse into the official music video for "Cyberfantasy." This track explores online personas and relationships, and we created a vibrant, stylized world to match the dramatic pop sound. This shows how I can build a whole concept around a song.

It was an honour to sit on a panel for the Spotify for Artists Masterclass alongside some legendary Indian artists. We discussed navigating the independent music scene, and it was a privilege to be recognized as an expert in my field.

Another look into my songwriting journal. This is a snippet of an original song called "Second Place," which explores the feeling of being a second choice. I write from real, gritty emotions to create something honest and relatable.

The official cover for my EP, "What Lies Beneath." We did an underwater shoot for this to capture the theme of deep self-reflection. It was a challenging but rewarding project that shows my commitment to creating unique and meaningful art.
