Our 250th episode is a special one for sure! It marks the first of Maed in India’s Our Neighbours interview series. Here’s a neighbour from the northwest – singer-songwriter, festival director and ethnomusicologist from Lahore, Natasha Noorani! Mae’s banter-ful chat with Natasha touches on her never-ending résumé, the indie music scene in Pakistan, the Lahore Music Meet she co-founded with fellow Biryani Bro Zahra Paracha, her nashtas (you’ll understand), Mae’s trip to Lahore, and, of course, ‘Choro’, the lead single from her upcoming album Ronaq, which you’ll also get to hear at the end of this episode!

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
