Vikramaditya Negi
About Candidate
With an artistic foundation grounded in the devotional spirit of Hindustani Classical, educated in the rich heritage and tradition of jazz, and vital with the profound power of blues and rock, Vikramaditya’s creative endeavours have often resulted in fairly unique sounding amalgamations of an extensive palette of musical influences, whilst retaining a sincere focus on narratives.
Over the years, he’s worked with a multitude of artistic projects in the capacity of a live musician, composer, producer, guitar player, vocalist, and songwriter, before thoroughly committing himself to the process of recording, producing, and releasing his own work entirely independently in the fall of 2024. Commencing work for what would make for his debut album, he officially released one of the more signficant tracks from this set of songs in the fall of 2025, entitled ‘Water’, which stands as a testament to his effort of bringing about synchronicity amongst the varied elements that make for his wide array of musical influences.
“Vikramaditya exhibits a keen understanding of music beyond the limitations of one instrument, and sees it in a larger perspective, that includes its production, presentation, and finesse. What I appreciate and respect the most about Vikramaditya is his ability to find beauty. His songwriting reflects this, and it is always a pleasure to work with someone who consumes music as an art, and enjoys it not so much for what it contains, but for what it does to you when you encounter it.”
