Joining us in the studio is psychedelic rock/new wave/80s post-punk singer-songwriter Dhanraj Karal aka Dohnraj, who tells Mae about how he left chartered accountancy behind to pursue music, how he learned to stop obsessing over perfection and a wild story involving Quincy Jones, Naomi Campell and Leonardo DiCaprio set in Jodhpur. Dohnraj also performs 3 songs from his debut album beauty and bullshit.

Whether it’s a shoegaze band from Chandigarh, thrash metal act from Visakhapatnam, rapper from Kashmir, vocal folk quartet from Kohima, Tamil indie pop act from Madurai, or a singer-songwriter from Mussoorie, Maed in India is where you’ll discover it.

Started in 2015, music nerd and ex-radio presenter Mae Mariyam Thomas showcases the best talent coming out of South Asia and its diaspora. 

The show is India’s first indie music podcast and prides itself on being the premier destination for new music, little known stories that give you a peek into the lives of independent musicians, as well as being an ongoing archive of unreleased music never heard before.

“Remember that in the darkest days when everything stopped, you turned to artists.” - Jishnu Bandyopadhyay
