Hi, I’m Aruna—a London-based vocalist and songwriter originally from Kolkata, India. My style blends the raw emotional storytelling of Olivia Rodrigo, the vocal agility and soulfulness of Tori Kelly, and the anthemic energy of early Kelly Clarkson—perfect for projects that need both heart and power. Whether you're after soaring vocals, heartfelt toplines, or collaborative songwriting, I bring both versatility and intention to every project. My original music has been featured in Rolling Stone India, CLASH, Wonderland, The Indian Express, and the Sunday supplement of The Telegraph. I’m passionate about using music to spotlight underrepresented voices and create space for diverse stories in pop. I was selected as one of the final 15 artists (out of 5,000+) in the Isle of Wight Festival competition, a highly competitive UK music showcase. I’ve shared the stage with X-Factor UK finalist Kevin Davy White, supporting him in opening for Jools Holland, the renowned British pianist and BBC music host. I’ve performed at venues such as the O2 Academy Islington, and honed my vocal skills with Grammy-winning producer Phil Ramacon (Amy Winehouse, Jimmy Cliff), further refining my craft. Trained at BIMM London (whose alumni include George Ezra and James Bay), I bring years of studio experience and a deep love for collaboration. Available for: 🎙 Lead vocals & harmonies 📝 Lyric writing & topline melody 🎧 Session work, sync briefs, and co-writing
