Kumar Shaktik SINGER / MUSICIAN | BANGALORE

Lets teach you harmonium  is what mom said once when I was in middle school. She did try to
push me to it a lot but it was only around 15 years later that I found the motivation to get into
music. When for the first time in life I picked up a mic and sang out loud in a Karaoke night in the
streets of Bangalore. It was then that I realised I could actually connect with the audience and the
music when I sing classic and soft rock tracks from the west.
From then on, it became a part of my daily routine to practice and improvise on my vocal skills and
instruments like a steel drum, keyboard, and Cajon. 6 years of being a regular Karaoke singer, a few
gigs where I sang along with fellow artists around the city, my knowledge and passion in music grew
hand in hand.
All those years of exploring the world of music and art, I started penning down a few lyrics, a year
ago, as a part of healing myself from a few traumatic incidents. As that happened, the energies got
me connected with a few other amazing artists who joined hands with me and we are now in the
process of composing a few original songs.
