Acoustic & Intimate Gigs for cozy house parties and cafes
I bring my guitar and a mix of indie-pop, R&B, and heartfelt originals to create the perfect vibe for your space. Whether it is a house party or a cafe set, let’s keep it real and comfy. 🎀
Performing as a duo with Nishan Saffar. An acoustic duo setup is perfect for smaller venues and corporate gigs where you want a full sound without a whole band.
A little POV of what it's like when I'm on stage and truly loving the performance. This was at a fun, intimate live event.
A smile for the audience at Nosh Haus in Kochi. In these smaller settings, I can really connect with everyone and share stories between songs.
That awkward smile when you mess up the lyrics but your bandmates have your back. Live music is beautifully imperfect.
Sharing a laugh on stage. I love keeping my performances real and goofy, just like I am with my friends.

About Acoustic & Intimate Gigs
For these intimate setups, I keep things super low-maintenance. I bring my own portable amp that handles rooms up to 500 sq. ft, so you don't need to rent a massive PA system if you have a smaller gathering of up to 40 people. It is just me, my guitar, and the songs, making it easy for us to connect without the tech getting in the way.
When you book me for an intimate gig, the goal is simple: a shared moment. I do not do stuffy, formal performances. Whether you want me to perform solo with just my guitar or as a duo with a keys player for a fuller sound, we keep the energy relaxed and genuine.
What I bring to the table
I grew up singing a lot of things, and while I love an indie-pop vibe (think Taylor Swift or Gracie Abrams), I also throw in some soulful R&B and, because the Mallu urge is strong, maybe a Tamil or Malayalam track if the crowd is feeling it. It is all about reading the room. If we are at a cozy cafe or a house party, I prefer to keep the talk between songs real—expect some bloopers, awkward jokes, and zero filter.
Practical stuff
- Solo Acoustic: Perfect for small spaces. I bring my guitar and a portable amp.
- Acoustic Duo: If you want a fuller sound with harmonies or a keyboard, I team up with another musician. For this, we will need a basic sound setup from your end.
- My background: I am classically trained, so while I love being goofy and 'cringe' on stage, the technique is there. I have played festivals like Under 25 Summit and opened for bands like When Chai Met Toast, so I am very comfortable holding a room's attention, even when things go a little sideways.
If you want someone who treats your event like a hangout rather than a corporate checklist, I am your person. Let's make it fun, slightly chaotic, and musical. 🫶
