Artist Bio

Flavouring modernist electro-pop and sleek R&B with the vibrant sounds of her Tamil heritage has made Priya Ragu one of the most hotly tipped artists around. Her debut mixtape ‘damnshestamil’ led to a rush of early acclaim as well as an unforgettable TV debut on ‘Later… With Jools Holland’, with a stunning performance of the Radio 1 playlisted ‘Lockdown’. ‘Illuminous’ then continued her ascent when it was named as Clara Amfo’s Hottest Record and playlisted at Radio 1. Priya’s reputation is also flourishing in the live arena. She has played shows as guests to Jungle and hit a global array of festivals including SXSW, Latitude and Primavera. Priya’s new single ‘Adalam Va!’ sees her delivering a feelgood demand to fill the dancefloor – something she will achieve when she plays her biggest London show to date at the Electric Brixton.
