Brooklyn, famed for its musical hybrids, has rarely seen a band like Minaxi. Formed in 2018, this genre-defying quartet fuses the frenetic energy of Mumbai’s outskirts with Brooklyn’s alt-rock introspection, creating a sound that is both rooted and transcendent.
Minaxi integrates Hindustani and Sufi music with the angst of psychedelia, the shimmer of shoegaze and ambient music, and the raw ethos of Midwest emo. The result is a sonic palette that feels both familiar and refreshingly original, steeped in tradition yet modern.
The band’s rhythm section shines with Steve Carlin’s infectious backbeats and Thomas Herndon’s groove-driven basslines, anchoring their experimental soundscapes. Liam Christian infuses Midwest emo sensibilities, while Shrenik Ganatra’s Hindustani roots add depth and intricate textures.
Their discography includes Khwab (2020), Lazuleen (2022), and The Reverberating Sound of an Absent Metropolis (2023), which delves into themes of urban isolation. Their upcoming release, Z of A (2025), explores global disruption in a double album format. True to their DIY ethos, Minaxi self-records their music and designs all visuals, led by Ganatra, a multidisciplinary artist.
More than a band, Minaxi is a convergence of cultures and artistic disciplines, crafting music that transcends borders and embraces the complexity of human existence.
