Who we are Nayar Collective

Nayar Collective is borne from the belief in the power of music to offer solace and renewal in a fractured world. Founded by critically acclaimed singer-songwriter Vedantha Kumar (August and After), their songs embrace the world with compassion, seeing its flaws and finding light within them.

Joined by eminent musicians, including violinist Inês Delgado (Royal Philharmonic Orchestra) and pianist/multi-instrumentalist Oliver Rutherford (Makam Salam), deep, soulful vocals are woven into a rich tapestry of instrumentation, moving between meditative moments and soaring climaxes. Following a run of sold-out shows in enchanting spaces, they have quickly built a reputation for soul-stirring performances where people arrive separately, but leave feeling part of something.
