Featured Vocal Projects and Session Work
From Amazon Prime playback to independent collaborations, here is a look at my work and the creative process behind the mic. Cheggit!
This is from the official soundtrack of Amazon Prime's 'Bandish Bandits' Season 2. I was the playback singer for the song 'Holdin' On', matching my vocal tone and emotion to the character's journey on screen. It was an amazing experience to be part of such a huge production.
Here's a little behind the scenes look at the recording session for 'Holdin' On'. You can see my process in the studio, finding the right feel and take for the track. For me, playback singing is all about capturing the emotion the story needs.
So stoked that my band Easy Wanderlings' song 'Enemy' was featured in the Amazon Original movie 'Gehraiyaan'. It’s always a huge moment to hear our independent music make its way into mainstream Bollywood films.
I love a good challenge, and this scat solo from Ella Fitzgerald's 'How High The Moon' was exactly that. Jazz is one of my biggest passions, and I love practicing complex harmonies and improvisational scatting to keep my vocal skills sharp.
Sometimes you just have to belt it out. Here's my take on the classic Aerosmith power ballad 'Dream On'. This shows a different side of my voice, delivering the power and grit needed for rock vocals.
Here’s a more stripped-back, living room version of 'Holdin' On' from Bandish Bandits. I love collaborating with other musicians in a relaxed setting to find a new vibe for a song. This acoustic duet shows how a track can be reinterpreted in a different style.
This is me in the studio, working on a track for Shreyas Iyengar's EP. Beyond just singing, I also offer vocal arrangement and co-composing services. It was a lot of fun helping to write and shape the melodies for this project.
About Featured
When I am in the studio, the mic isn't just a tool; it is a bridge to the listener. My process for playback or session work always starts with a vibe check, where I listen to the guide track and discuss the emotional intent. Whether you need a raw, unpolished indie feel or a crisp, commercial ad jingle, I will keep experimenting with vocal textures until the performance lands exactly where it needs to. Let’s talk about your track.
My approach to session singing is built on flexibility. I do not believe in forcing a vocal; I believe in chasing the feeling of the track. Over the years, I have developed a workflow that balances technical precision with emotional depth, which is why I provide dry, uncompressed stems for you to work with in post-production.
How We Can Work Together
- Playback & OTT: I adapt my tone to match the character and the narrative. Whether it is a soft, intimate moment or a high-energy sequence, I focus on the storytelling aspect of the song.
- Ad Jingles & Commercials: I understand that these need to be earworms. I offer rapid 24-48 hour turnarounds, providing three distinct tonal variations—breezy, energetic, or soft—so you have the flexibility to choose what fits your brand vision best.
- Vocal Arrangement & Harmonies: Sometimes a song needs more than just a lead vocal. I specialize in stacking harmonies and creating complex arrangements, including quad-stacks, to give your choruses that massive, wide stereo sound.
The Technical Stuff
I record in an acoustically treated home studio using professional-grade large-diaphragm condenser microphones and high-fidelity pre-amps. You get clean, professional audio, but with the personality and grit that makes a track stand out. If you are looking for a session vocalist in Mumbai who is as invested in your project as you are, hit me up. Let's make something cool.
