Shevya, an Indian American artist who combines both the sounds apparent in classical Indian music with RnB beats, and has so far released songs only in Hindi, will be the next big thing that will ultimately help push Desi Pop into the mainstream. Shevya Aswathi, who goes by her first name, was born and raised in San Diego, California and is now currently living in New York City. From the age of 10, she started learning Hindustani Classical music, and as she was growing up, she participated in acapella groups and experimented a lot with songwriting and composing. She officially started releasing music in 2021, with the single “Aao Na.” Since then, she has released three other singles: “Nasha,” “Chaand,” and “Shah Rukh Kaun?” Additionally, she posts on her TikTok account, @shevthehev, covers of popular Western and K-pop songs. - Brinda Kalita
