Maed in India

Maed in India

Whether it’s a shoegaze band from Chandigarh, thrash metal act from Visakhapatnam, rapper from Kashmir, vocal folk quartet from Kohima, Tamil indie pop act from Madurai, or a singer-songwriter from Mussoorie, Maed in India is where you’ll discover it. Started in 2015, music nerd and ex-radio presenter Mae Mariyam Thomas showcases the best talent coming out of South Asia and its diaspora.  The show is India’s first indie music podcast and prides itself on being the premier destination for new music, little known stories that give you a peek into the lives of independent musicians, as well as being an ongoing archive of unreleased music never heard before. “Remember that in the darkest days when everything stopped, you turned to artists.” - Jishnu Bandyopadhyay

    Here’s a very special episode of Maed in India.  You may have heard of this very cool gig called the Red Bull Tour Bus. It’s a behemoth music tour that travels across India, bringing you extraordinary Indian indie performances. It’s now been 10 years since it started and recently, our very own Mae Mariyam Thomas along with fellow music aficionados Nirmika Singh and Amit Gurbaxani were the judges got to judge the Red Bull Off The Roof Band Hunt, where young artists or bands have the chance to play the gig of a lifetime. Though they were spoiled for choice with the talent there had to be one winner - soul R&B crew Queendom!    Brecilla D'Souza and Damini Gautam are back (check out their 2021 Ladies Special episode here) and with their whole band in tow and new unreleased music to share.   Learn how to manifest a performance on Red Bull Off The Roof tour bus, the power of 3 part harmonies, why the stage is their safe space and of course, what it really means to be a queen and making that word less la di da.    Song List (Audio): Pussy Talk (01:41 - 07:09) Colony (16:11 - 18:26) Search for Meaning (31:26 - 35:42)   Follow Queendom: Instagram @queendomindia   Queendom is:  Brecilla D'Souza on vocals Damini Gautam on vocals                      Accompanying artists Meera Desai on vocals Pratika on vocals Shivang Kapadia on drums                     Pranav Kamat on electric guitar Adi Ahir on bass guitar   Come be our friend: Facebook @maedinindia Instagram @maedinindia Twitter @maedinindia   CREDITS: Host: Mae Twitter: @maebemaebe Instagram: @maemariyam Producer: Shaun Fanthome, Sean D'mello, Ruchi Sawardekar  Content & Social Media Manager: Meghna Gulati Sound Editing & Additional Engineering by: Lakshman Parsuram Video Editing by: Jishnu Guha Episode Mixed & Mastered by: Kartik Kulkarni Music Mixed by: Jehangir Jehangir Recorded at Island City Studios

    The Soul

    On the special occasion of Sri Lanka’s Independence Day on Feb 4th, Mae sits down with Sri Lankan reggae/dub/rock band, The Soul. They chat about the band's insistence on NOT being a cover band and making only original music (and being a broke musician in the process), the sad sad situation of Sri Lanka’s economy but also how it’s not sad and everything is perfectly fine (right?). When talking about their music it ranges from dystopian futures and reflections on political turmoil all the way to the woes of being a struggling independent artist. Oh and they teach Mae some Sinhalese too (whether it was successful or not you’ll have to listen to the episode to find out).   Song List (Audio): Dancer Wake (01:13 - 06:35) Light Bringer (25:52 - 32:27) Lucky Child (38:38 - 48:34) Grasshopper (57:16 - 1:04:41)   Follow The Soul: Instagram @thesoulsrilanka Facebook @thesoulsrilanka The Soul is:  Dave Roberts on vocals Khazim Miskin on lead guitar Uvindu Perera on bass Sarani Perera on rhythm guitar Divanka Sewmin on drums   Come be our friend: Facebook @maedinindia Instagram @maedinindia Twitter @maedinindia   CREDITS: Host: Mae Twitter: @maebemaebe Instagram: @maemariyam Producer: Shaun Fanthome, Nikkethana Kamal, Ruchi Sawardekar  Content & Social Media Manager: Meghna Gulati Sound Editing & Additional Engineering by: Lakshman Parsuram Video Editing by: Jishnu Guha Episode Mixed & Mastered by: Kartik Kulkarni Music Mixed by: Ashyar Balsara Recorded at Island City Studios
