He has also had extensive experience performing as a part of different outfits at premier venues across India, including The Piano Man Jazz Club, Oberoi Hotels, Lemon Tree Hotels, and more. ‘Still’ is a collection of thoughts and feelings we have all had at some point in our lives. The intense rush of nostalgia, the sudden realization that moments passed will never come back, and the following somber sadness. The verses fondly recall a sheltered life that was unappreciated in its time.

Recorded live in one take. _________________________ Ahmedabad-based Compass Box Studio joined hands with the homegrown music distribution company OK Listen with an aim to identify and extend support to up-and-coming singer-songwriters from all over India! The online contest took place in June-July 2020, where over 300 musicians sent in applications of their original compositions. The jury made up of Raag Sethi, Vijay Basrur, in addition to accomplished singer-songwriters Maalavika Manoj aka Mali and Nikhil D'Souza selected three winners: Tabitha Kagoo, Anoushka Maskey & Sheil Sagar. Anoushka Maskey is a singer-songwriter, based in Sikkim/Mumbai, India. She identifies as a lyrics-first musician and plays the guitar and ukulele. Anoushka's sound, as well as songwriting, connotes a warm; almost nostalgic feel. With her roots set in folk music and a fondness for storytelling, you will find her work stylistic of the two. Written during the lockdown in 2020, ‘Empire of Fear’ is inspired by the dilemma of wanting to stay updated with the news and everything happening in the world and in your personal life, while also wanting to detach from it and trying to stay sane. The song is about being a dreamer in this world where cold facts and tragic worldly situations are constantly making it hard to be one.

Recorded live in one take. _________________________ Jhanvi Soni is a singer-songwriter from Surat. While she has completed her BE in computer engineering she is thinking about shifting slowly to music. There is always darkness before the dawn.

Recorded live in one take. _________________________ Ashish Joel, an MBBS graduate from Pondicherry comes from a family filled with singers and musicians. An ardent love for music was born from this exposure to the art from a young age. He started off learning a bunch of instruments and playing in church which then progressed to writing songs, the first time being during an English class in high school. Falling in love with the process of it, he never stopped writing. He uses his songs as a way of expression, of telling a story - be it his, a friend's or a loved one's. He's planning on recording and releasing an EP soon. The song 'Soul' tells a story of heartbreak, of healing and most importantly, of hope that is lost but can be found. It tells a story of a light at the end of the tunnel, however dark the trail may be. If you look around you'll see signs which tell you things will get better, and you'll be okay.

Recorded live in one take. _________________________ Anurag Pandya was originally a grunge artist, who now has a steep inclination towards blues and classic rock.
