Tamil-Swiss artist Priya Ragu makes music that radiates diversity, colour, joy and fearless creativity. Based in Zurich but rarely sitting still, she has built a world where Tamil melodies, hip-hop, R&B and live orchestration move together fluently — a sound she calls “raguwavy.” With over 40 million global streams, critically acclaimed releases DAMNSHESTAMIL (2021) and SANTHOSAM (2023), and coverage spanning The New York Times, The Guardian, NME, Rolling Stone and Vogue, Priya has established herself as one of the most distinctive and culturally relevant voices in contemporary music. She has performed at Primavera, Montreux Jazz Festival, SXSW and Rock En Seine, and made her TV debut on BBC Later with Jools Holland.
