Sayantika Ghosh is a singer, songwriter and music producer from Kolkata, India. True to the Eastern and Western influences over many centuries which have stimulated and contributed to Kolkata’s cultural life, Sayantika’s music reflects similar blends.  She started writing poetry at the young age of 10 which soon turned into song writing.  The expected next steps were programming her own music which she followed. 

Masters in Geology holder from IIT, Mumbai, Sayantika started performing while still studying. Sayantika has always had an overactive imagination with an overt love for fantasy and science fiction because “they talk about worlds, very different from our own. But we can all find our fairy tales, right here in reality, if we look hard enough. Or sometimes, when we least expect it, we fall into a rabbit-hole of endless and unimaginable possibilities”.

True to her nature, Sayantika’s music is alternative pop. Along with her favourite artists, The Beatles, Coldplay, Radiohead, Gorillaz, and many more, her major influences include film scores and Bollywood music, which are all reflected in her songs. Her textured vocals add to the cinematic experience that forms the most notable element in her music. Her songs often revolve around themes of melancholy, self discovery and childhood nostalgia. She looks for inspiration in any form of music she hears and in the sounds of everyday life.

She has performed extensively including at the Totem Pole Music Festival, the Worli Festival, The Finch, Godrej L’affaire, and Zero Mile Music Festival, inaddition to her showcase at MuseExpo, Hollywood
