Биография

Sandhya Chari is a Tamil-American vocalist, lyricist, and composer based out of California, USA. Honoring her history and legacy, her debut independent single “My Roots” is a kaleidoscope of her homeland’s diversity. The rising artist is redefining how one claims their origins through this celebratory debut. An influential new voice, Sandhya wants to break barriers in music. She bridges Western and Desi beats in her songs and can seamlessly transition between the languages of English, Tamil, Hindi, and Punjabi. 
 As a first-generation Indian-American, Sandhya first rose to prominence as a YouTuber whose incredible cross-cultural mashups brought her acclaim. Her covers of “High On Love + FRIENDS” and “Munbe Vaa” were celebrated by thousands of viewers. Sandhya was also one of the winners of Academy and Grammy-Award winning musician A.R. Rahman’s #99SongsCoverStar contest; her rendition of “Sofia” was viewed and selected by the maestro himself. 
 Sandhya’s debut original single “My Roots” is a testament to her passion and vision as a musician. The song, much like its themes of representation, feminism, decolonisation and more, encompasses various forms of music that are melded together to create a distinctive sound. Western pop beats, classical music, South Indian folk and bollywood elements have all been beautifully strung together to create Sandhya’s powerful debut track “My Roots.”
