‘Haunting’ and ‘Hypnotic’ are the two words most commonly used to describe Bindu Subramaniam’s voice. Having been dubbed a ‘third-generation prodigy, and an ‘assured young soprano’ by the press, Bindu Seetaa Subramaniam’s talent was noticed and nurtured from a very young age. Now twenty-four, this singer/songwriter has created a very original sound fusing rock and jazz elements with a background in Indian music. Her training in Indian and western styles of music have given her a unique sound while her meaningful lyrics and angelic voice leave listeners hooked.

Bindu has collaborated on projects with many great artists, including Dr. L. Subramaniam, Kavita Krishnamurti Subramaniam, Al Jarreau, George Duke, Stanley Clarke, Billy Cobham, Larry Coryell, Corky Siegel, Matthew Santos, Pandit Jasraj, Dr. M. Balamuralikrishna, Pankaj Udhas, Hariharan, and Remo Fernandes.

In addition to performing with her band, Bindu also tours with her family (parents Dr. L. Subramaniam and Kavita Krishnamurti Subramaniam and brother Ambi Subramaniam) and has performed as a soloist with symphony and chamber orchestras, including the Beijing Symphony (China), NRK Philharmonic (Oslo), Sibiu Philharmonic (Sibiu) and the Leipzig Philharmonic Orchestra (Germany).



Bindu has taken her music across the world, performing at prestigious venues like the Lincoln Center (USA), Esplanade (Singapore) and KLCC Twin Towers (Malaysia). She has also performed in Switzerland, Mauritius, Oman, Germany, Romania, Poland, Australia, Norway, Sri Lanka and extensively in India, where she is based. She has performed for crowds of upto 300,000 people.

She was a featured soloist at the Miss World Coronation Ball 1996, and has performed for both the President and Vice-President of India in 1997, for the Presidents of India and China in 2000 and for the President of India in 2005. She has also been a regular performer at the Lakshminarayana Global Music Festival. Bindu was a part of the recent Visions of India tour (October 2007 – January 2008), a smash hit across India, attracting crowds of over 13,000 people. The Visions of India Album was released in August 2008.
