A young man raised in the California Bay Area born Tamil Nadu Indian, beautiful voice bringing South Indian music to western music

[mayukhchatterji]

so so so grateful to have experienced this man and his music live a month ago. What an incredible experience and the best concert I have attended yet.

There was a little boy in the concert right upfront. Sid asks how old he is and the boy says he is 10.
Sid says he is grateful to have such a diverse audience and asks him if he is enjoying the show and the boy says yes.

From the moment he walked onstage and started with a traditional Hindu prayer to the entire concert filled with words on love, poetry, gratitude and how as he was growing up, there was no one like him on stages and doing music and that he is honored to be doing what he is doing and representing the culture and that he is filled with gratitude for everything that is coming to him, it was a concert like no other. Absolutely stunning.

The band concerts we are used to usually are about the music and 'are you having fun?' and maybe some f-words thrown in here and there. For a 10 year old to attend a concert where the frontman is talking about love, prayer, kindness, humility and gratitude is something that I hope leaves an impression on that kid.

he sings this like a prayer and it makes me sob even more

[nganbas]

Life won't be fair if we didn't get a chance to witness him sing this song on a big stage with a full opera and serenading backing vocals.

I love how much his culture is important to him. It’s amazing. He’s like opened a door to a different side of music for me.

I just found this ARTICIAN (Artist/Musician) and I have to say this is a beautiful song. This is my first time listening. This made me cry and smile. My Mom just passed away in November 2023 so this really touched me. Because of this I am now a subscriber. Thank you. 💜💙💜💙

Sid your voice is mesmerizing and so soothing. I love all your songs. Thanks for coming to South Africa . We love you ❤

[payesi]

Just as quiet as dawn
You crept up on me
I felt strangely in love
Frail heart still there
Terrified of the way you make me feel
Won't you let me in?
Eyes weary
Full of life
For you, I'd put my fears aside
Just as quiet as dawn (Oh)
You left in the early morning
I'm back again
Won't you let me in?
Found your number, don't know if I should call (Dear Sahana)
All the different ways you make me feel
Could be the distance, made this love visible (Dear Sahana)
All the different ways you make me feel
There are some times
We fall from grace
Searching for infinite alone
And oh, how I try (I try)
To go on my own (On my own)
Every path seems to lead me back to you
You
Yeah-yeah, oh
Found your number, don't know if I should call (Dear Sahana)
All the different ways you make me feel
Could be the distance, made this love visible (Dear Sahana)
All the different ways you make me feel
(Dear Sahana)
All the different ways you make me feel (Oh, you know I've been thinking about you)
Could be the distance, made this love visible (Dear Sahana)
You make me feel
Oh-oh, oh me
Ooh, different ways I've been feeling about you, uh
Dear Sahana
Different ways I've been feeling 'bout you
Dear Sahana, ooh, girl
Dear Sahana, oh
I've been thinking 'bout you, girl (Girl)
Dear Sahana, you know I need you
Oh, I don't want you, but I need you
I don't just want you, oh, I need you
