NAGAVALLI
East and West co-mingle harmoniously in Indian-American, Austin-based musician, Nagavalli. Nagavalli’s music, described as “Eastern Soul”, blends east-Indian soul with delicate touches of pop, rock, trance and pure eastern tradition. Nagavalli’s repertoire ranges from her original songs in English to east-Indian spirituals, creating sounds both unique, yet familiar, which often results in the listener achieving a state of meditative tranquility.
“Nagavalli’s voice and spirit give me the depth of experience I long for in music and rarely reach”, says Eliza Gilkyson, renowned Austin-based folk musician.
“Nagavalli is truly an amazing talent. Her concert was one of the most moving performances I have experienced at One World Theatre ” – Hartt Stearns, Founder – One World Theatre
“..Nagavalli’s art is unlike any other you’ll hear in Austin.” – Peter Blackstock, Austin360
Nagavalli grew up in Mumbai, India bringing the rich, soulful music of her home to Austin, Texas where Valli has brought in a variety of artists representing genres such as Latin, American rock and jazz to East-Indian and Middle-Eastern classical and folk into the studio to refine her eclectic sound.
