The last time we spoke to New Delhi singer-producer Tarana Marwah aka Komorebi was when she released the four-track Birds And Bees EP with fellow artist Abhishek Bhatia aka Curtain Blue (from experimental rockers The Circus). Since then, Marwah has been busy scoring films, performing in the U.K. and even did a listening session with radio presenter Bobby Friction as part of the BBC Asian Network in London.
In the midst of all this, Marwah has also been putting together her multimedia concept album The Fall. The record follows 2017’s full-length debut Soliloquy. Marwah says, “[The new album] includes two music videos and an exclusive Komorebi comic book with the same name, that goes hand in hand with the music.”
One of the music videos is the record’s lead single, the enchanting “I Grew Up,” which also features Mumbai/Auckland guitarist Warren Mendonsa aka Blackstratblues. In this interview with Rolling Stone India, Marwah talks to us about The Fall, how she created the clip for “I Grew Up,” what she has planned next and more. Read below.
When we talked in 2021 (for “Chanda”) you mentioned The Fall, how long has this project been in the works and what can you tell me about how you came up with the concept for not only the music but also all the visuals attached to it?
