After releasing an EP with her band Mosko, Kavya started working on her solo project and released two singles Golden and Underscore. Anyone who has seen her perform can say that her artistic expressions go way beyond singing. Her lyrics are based on real-life events and deep emotions accompanied by a handful of fun and imagination. A case in point would be her music video for Underscore.
Kavya debuted at Lollapalooza India, and for the third time at Vh1 Supersonic this year. Post her performance, VERUS FERREIRA spoke to Kavya on her music, new album, collaborations, love for acting and much more.
Can you share with us something about yourself?
I think and I truly believe in the fact that you grow into the name that you have. We’re so lucky in India to have these names that mean something. So Kavya means poetry. So I write poetry and my music is electronic, it’s emotional. Its core is in singer-songwriter, acoustic. But it has a lot of synthesis, live looping and I think it’s more about experiencing my music versus what I can say. I’m so bad at describing my music!
Tell us about your musical background and how you started singing.
Unfortunately, I don’t come from a long lineage of a musical family, but I have a very gifted mother and singer. So I guess when I was very young, like when I was 14, I started singing. My lullabies were ABBA and George Michael and my sister would sing songs to me. I went to a school that really encouraged extracurricular and the beauty of being creative. And so there was no looking back when I said yes on my first open mic. I just started playing. I allowed the collaborators to teach me things from production of how to behave in a studio. And I’m just a self-taught musician. I don’t want to stop.
