Bassist

Hailed as “among modern music’s most compelling vocalists” (The Wall Street Journal), ganavya brings her genre-defying sound to Noe Music in celebration of her deeply personal new album, Nilam (out May 25, 2025). Drawing from South Indian classical traditions, jazz, and devotional song, ganavya’s music resists boundaries and invites stillness. Joined by bassist Max Ridley and harpist Charles Overton, she offers an evening of intimate, soulfully expansive music—an honest expression of ancestry, gratitude, and the quiet power of connection.
