New York-born, Tamil Nadu-raised singer and transdisciplinarian
Ganavya
presents a new album,
Nilam
. It follows
Daughter Of A Temple
,
Gilles Peterson
's BBC 6 Music Album of the Year, similarly declared one of 2024's Top 10 Best Global Albums by
The Guardian
, who applauded Ganavya's ability to harness "the power of communal harmony to touch something deeper than song." Co-produced by
Nils Frahm
at Leiter Studio in Berlin's Funkhaus complex. Listening to the remarkable
Nilam
, it seems implausible now that its inception might ever have been in doubt. So astonishing is its stillness, so profound its communication of sentiment, it feels as if it was always meant to be. A celebration of the ties that bind, and possibly the most tender-hearted music listeners will hear this year, it's intimate and honest, a poignant expression of gratitude for the blessings which keep people grounded, if only they'll recognize and welcome them. Indeed, it could have been transmitted directly from soul to stereo, from the way "Not A Burden" lifts a weight off the world's shoulders to the peaceful "Sees Fire," with "Land"'s gentle groove full of space, "Nine Jeweled Prayer" serenely precious, and, throughout, Ganavya's vocals like ripples on a lagoon.
