Биография

SAMAA is a 5-man Hindi-English music group based in New York City. With roots in a cappella singing, SAMAA emerged in 2016 as one of the world’s most recognizable YouTube creators. Debuting with internationally viral pop mashup and collaborations with artists such as Samica, Shobhit Banwait, & Lisa Mishra, SAMAA saw their initial rise in popularity through creating cover music fusing Bollywood, English Pop, and Latino elements to build a unique cover sound. Touring internationally, SAMAA has performed at venues across the US, Canada, and India. After the 2018 release and commercial success of “Signs,” an original composition featuring Punjabi sensation Pav Dharia, SAMAA entered a 2-year sabbatical from creating cover music to build a repertoire of genre-defining original arrangements. Beginning with “Pariyon Ki Rani” in January 2020, SAMAA has set the precedent of prioritizing music blending global influences. From the April 2020 release of Anjaani (Remix) featuring Vivek Agrawal, a former composer for A.R. Rahman, SAMAA has evolved its traditional roots with starkly modern percussion. In May, June, and July 2020 SAMAA will release 3 debut singles: Woman Like You, Gumshuda, and Conmigo showcasing pop electronic and acoustic elements spanning English, Hindi, and Spanish languages. From Latino and Hindi dance tracks to heartfelt Bollywood ballads, SAMAA is showcasing a wide breadth of musical mastery to capture its audience’s emotions across cultures and continents.
