About
Hailing from the home of metal, Birmingham, Pryti has been obsessed with music for as long as she can remember, singing from the time she learned to speak, and playing piano from a very early age. But it was in her teens that the British Indian singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist discovered her calling. “Linkin Park’s album Hybrid Theory is what got me into metal,” she shares, “I was 15 years old and didn’t fit in, and they opened the door to a world of metal and rock music.” It wasn't long before she picked up guitar and started playing bass too. In university she pursued a degree in Music and Media Management, and would use those skills to start her own independent label. “I love the business side” she shares, “I wanted to start my own label and be in charge of my career since learning about the music industry.” In 2013 Pryti embraced that ethos and released her debut ep Welcome To Pariahville which scored her first review in Kerrang by Sam Carter (Architects). Her debut LP Tales of a Melancholic would follow in 2015, receiving critical acclaim in the UK and USA with praise from Rocksound, Powerplay, Hit the Floor, New Noise, Cryptic Rock and many more. These releases fully embraced the doom and heaviness of metal, while her latest songs, recorded with Pryti’s longtime producer Justin Hill (Sikth, Young Guns, Heart of a Coward), draw from that world but also incorporate more aesthetics from alt-rock, indie rock and electronica. Her forthcoming full-length album (details TBA) features music with elements of alternative rock, metal and indie electronica, with influences ranging from Now Now, Halsey and PVRIS to Emma Ruth Rundle and Chelsea Wolfe. The multi-talented artist “When I was recording my new music this past year,” shares Pryti, “it finally felt like something was changing. I have worked really hard to become a better vocalist, musician and songwriter. I really pushed myself to the point where it finally felt like I was breaking new ground as an artist.” Anyone who listens to Pryti’s latest music is certainly sure to agree the effort has paid off in spades as she builds upon her already formidable talents for playing, singing, and songwriting with each new release.
