About the band
One singer, six musicians and a lot of late-night rehearsals.
Hi, I'm Ishaan.
I started learning Hindustani classical vocals at nine and sang my first wedding at nineteen, standing on a wobbly stage with a borrowed microphone. I have not stopped since.
Raag Live began as three friends playing unplugged in Your City cafés. Today we are six regular musicians, with guest players for bigger shows, playing the songs families actually want to sing along to.
- Trained in Hindustani classical vocals
- Sufi, ghazal, Bollywood, folk and our own songs
- Shows in Hindi, Urdu and Awadhi
