Nikhil Iyer: The quintessential Indian - American Music & Performing Artist.
Born & raised in America, but immersed in the world of Indian Art, the 23 year old has spent his life bridging the worlds of Indian melody & modern American sound. His soulful voice along with his raw & refined compositions, built from his excellence in voice & guitar, have led him to be recognized as Spotify’s #4 RADAR India & #5 RADAR Tamil Artist. His vision is clear: to deliver evergreen Indian Melody globally, through a raw and refined talent, cutting through the noise, into the souls of his fans. Shaped by ongoing training in Carnatic voice, piano, & guitar, his sound is inspired by Arijit Singh, Ed Sheeran, & Zach Bryan. He blends Indian melody with the relatability of Western singer-songwriters, resulting in his timeless Originals & Nikhil Iyer Versions.
He takes "Nikhil Iyer Live" to crowds, transforming intimate rooms into singalongs and large venues into experiences, rising above the word "Indie." Iyer takes care of the entire song-making process himself, collaborating with his younger brother, Akshay Iyer, a renowned drummer & producer. Accolades include appearing on the biggest billboard in NYC for his NYFW performance, composing ‘Arz e Dil’ alongside Coke Studio Pakistan’s Nirmal Roy, opening for Ankur Tewari & Madhuri Dixit + releasing with India's biggest labels all from America.
