We don't just perform; we trade solos and experiment with rhythm in real-time, designed to get crowds clapping and dancing from the first raga-infused rock riff. Whether it’s the roar of 2,000+ students at IIT Madras or the jazz-club intimacy of The Piano Man in Delhi, my approach to Carnatic fusion remains the same: it has to move you. My band, Viprahar, is designed to bridge the gap between classical purity and modern festival energy. We run with a 6-piece setup including electric guitar, bass, keyboard, drums, and electric violin, allowing us to pivot from melodic krithis to full-on rock jams effortlessly. I curate every setlist to balance high-energy crowd-pleasers with soul-stirring alaaps. For large proshows, we provide a full tech rider and manage our own FOH sound to ensure the fusion comes through clearly without losing the intricate nuances of the ragas. If you are planning a campus event or a music festival and want an act that breaks the traditional concert mold, we bring the technical expertise and the stage presence to make it happen. ## About Spoorthi Rao Hey, I'm Spoorthi. I grew up with Carnatic music, but I’ve always wanted to see how far these ragas can stretch when you add some electric guitar and drums to the mix. It’s all about keeping the bhakti alive while letting the energy go wild on stage.
