Listen to an artiste’s debut album that has indi-pop songs

Sidharth Nair
Sometimes, the musical direction that an artiste takes is not like a stream that flows in a straight path. It’s more like a meandering river with twists and turns along the way. Take Sidharth Nair for example.
The Bengaluru-based 24-year-old used to be in a metal band while in college, fed on a diet of progressive acts such as Karnivool and Tesseract. But two years ago, when he started mulling his solo avatar, he decided to take a different route altogether. He composed a bunch of soft indi-pop songs that are as far removed from metal music as Madonna is from Marilyn Manson, and he’s now compiled them into his debut EP, In My Void.
