As music festival season descends upon us, we meet the new generation of musicians whose works you should be streaming, downloading, or buying tickets to watch live
TARANA Marwah
In brief: When Delhi-based Tarana Marwah, who writes and performs as whimsical electronica act Komorebi, tells us she prefers working behind the scenes, we find it hard to believe. Just the weekend before this shoot, we caught her act, her infectious on-stage energy making us jump in a slushy gymkhana ground. She’s on tour with her new album Soliloquy, something she describes as an escape to reality, a dreamscape where art and design come together to transcend the music and make it an ‘experience’. And she’s looked into it all – costumes, animated videos, album artwork, visuals, collaborations with folks “on the same wavelength”. The end result? A modern sound, and an experience in which every single element is thought out – not just stuff that is cool for the sake of being cool.
That’s what she said: “The whimsy and awkwardness in my work is just part of me – I can’t escape it. I am very inspired by artists like Grimes and Lady Gaga. I love their onstage and offstage personas, and I want to bring that kind of personality to my act.”
Catch her: At Wonderflip, Udaipur (November 9-12), Echoes of Earth, Bengaluru (November 18-19), and Magnetic Fields, Alsisar (December 15-17).
