I sing, I teach, I play. Just landed in Mumbai, chasing the music dream, you know how it goes. Started teaching vocals kinda by accident, no fancy Western training, just learning as I go. Took the Trinity exams to help my students out. Online classes during lockdown, told my folks I was new, we learnt together. Four years in, it’s wild how much joy singing brings, both ways. Still figuring it out, loving every moment. ### My work - **Live Performances & Session Vocals**: I do lead and backing vocals, harmonies, choir work, and indie session vocals for ads, films, and more. - **Western Contemporary Vocal Classes**: I teach Western contemporary vocals, focusing on feel and emotion, not just technique. - **Playback Singing & Collaborations**: Playback for OTT shows and films - like 'Holdin' On' for Bandish Bandits S2, and 'Enemy' in Gehraiyaan. - **Vocalist for Easy Wanderlings**: I sing with my band Easy Wanderlings. Check us out if you vibe with soulful music. - **Open to New Projects**: Just moved to Mumbai, keen on fun collabs and new work. Hit me up if you’ve got something cool. ## More services from Pratika Gopinath - [Live Vocal Performance](https://mytribe.in/pratika.gopinath/live-vocal-performance) · ₹15-80K per live performance (estimate) - [Vocal Coaching](https://mytribe.in/pratika.gopinath/vocal-coaching) · ₹800-2,500 per hour (estimate) - [Commercial Acting & Modeling](https://mytribe.in/pratika.gopinath/commercial-acting-modeling) · ₹8-25K per day (estimate) ## Experts similar to Pratika Gopinath on mytribe - [Branded Photo Booths for Corporate Events & Marketing by Pictastic Photobooths](https://mytribe.in/ pictastic_photobooths/branded-photo-booths-for-corporate-events-marketing) · ₹25-60K per event (estimate) · Delhi - [Pre-Adoption Consultation by Waggology by Vedika](https://mytribe.in/waggology/pre-adoption-consultation) · ₹500-1,500 per session (estimate) · Pune - [Studio & Playback Singing by Trishita Recs](https://mytribe.in/trishitarecs/studio-playback-singing) · ₹5-25K per song/session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Wedding & Event Gifting by Lush & Rapt](https://mytribe.in/lush_and_rapt/wedding-event-gifting) · ₹500-5,000 per gift/hamper (estimate) · Pune - [Studio Vocal Recording by Akanksha B.](https://mytribe.in/akanksha.sings/studio-vocal-recording) · ₹3-12K per song/session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Session Vocalist & Artistic Collaborations by Ishaan Nigam](https://mytribe.in/ishaannigam.live/session-vocalist-artistic-collaborations) · ₹8-30K per session/song/event (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Event Planning & Decoration by Cherry Blossoms](https://mytribe.in/cherryblossomsstore__/event-planning-decoration) · ₹10-40K per event (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Studio & Session Recording by Chintan Katti](https://mytribe.in/chintankatti/studio-session-recording) · ₹5-20K per session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Studio & Session Vocalist by Jaden Maskie](https://mytribe.in/jadenmaskie/studio-session-vocalist) · ₹4-20K per song/session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Studio Recording & Session Work by Hardik Verma](https://mytribe.in/hardikvermaa/studio-recording-session-work) · ₹5-20K per session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Vocal Coaching by Shubhangi C](https://mytribe.in/voxy.lady/vocal-coaching) · ₹800-2,500 per hour (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Studio & Session Tabla Recording by Unmesh Banerjee](https://mytribe.in/unmesh_banerjee/studio-session-tabla-recording) · ₹3-12K per track (estimate) · India ## Book To book Pratika Gopinath, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Studio%20%26%20Session%20Vocals%20by%20Pratika%20Gopinath.)
