Bhrigu Sahni: I'm Trying To Hole Myself Up And Work On A Lot Of My Own Music

Initially released on his debut solo album What Is Now at the end of 2016, Pune-based fingerstyle guitarist Bhrigu Sahni’s contemplative track “Momentary Present” got a striking blend of visuals last month courtesy of the gig series BYOH Live and videographer Ron Bezbaruah aka Crumpled Paper.

Sahni performed the track at Gray Spark Audio, a Pune-based studio founded by sound engineers Ronak Runwal and Nikita Borges which hosts the unique Bring Your Own Headphones Live sessions that aim to change the way audiences and artists engage with each other during performances. “Ronak is an old friend and when I was in the country last year, I had heard that he had set up shop at a beautiful new location in Baner,” recalls Sahni. “I had seen pictures and really wanted to work on something in his new studio. I think we got on a phone call and he told me about the idea of BYOH and I was sold.”
