Original Music & Custom Songwriting in Mumbai
I turn my awkward life moments into songs. Here is a look at my original music, from intimate live performances to the stories behind the tracks.
This is a live performance of my original song 'Psychic.' It’s a very personal track, and sharing it in such a cozy, intimate setting at The Hertz Cave felt just right.
An old video of another one of my original songs, performed live at the Hive in Bandra. This is me in my element, just a guitar and a story to tell.
A throwback to my very first solo set where I played all original music. It was a huge step for me to overcome my fears and put my own stories out there. This night means a lot to me.
This is the cover art for my debut single, 'Come Talk to Me.' The song is about being a bit of a 'fattu' in social situations and hoping someone else breaks the ice.
The amazing people who came out to support my first full original set. I was so grateful for this crowd. It gave me the confidence to keep writing and sharing my music.
In the studio, recording the vocals for my single. There's a certain kind of magic that happens when you're in the booth, bringing a song you wrote to life.
Another shot from the recording session. You can see the focus and emotion that goes into every take. I wanted the vocals to feel as real and honest as the lyrics.
About My Original Music
When I perform my own songs, I am not looking to put on a grand show, I am just trying to have a conversation. Whether it is a cozy gig at The Hertz Cave or a local cafe, I play these tracks because they are the honest bits of my life. If you want a setlist that is more than just background noise for your event, we can chat about the mood you are aiming for.
I spent a long time at a desk job before realizing that my real life happens when I am writing songs. Music is how I process the stuff I am too nervous to say out loud. My debut single, 'Come Talk to Me', is the best example of this. It is a song about being that person in the corner at a party, hoping someone breaks the ice. That is exactly who I am.
My original music isn't about polish or perfection. It is about capturing a moment. When I play at live venues or house parties, I like to share the stories behind songs like 'Psychic' or my other compositions because it makes the performance feel like a shared experience rather than a one-way street.
Beyond just performing at live gigs across Mumbai, I also offer custom songwriting. If you have a story, a memory, or a special occasion that needs a soundtrack, I can help you turn those thoughts into an original song. I write, record, and produce everything myself in my home studio. It is a messy, personal process, but it is one of the most rewarding things I do. Whether you are looking for an original set for a corporate event, a festival, or something more intimate for a gathering at home, I am happy to share my tunes. Aajao, let us talk about what you need.
