About MayaSwara
It all began with one word "Curiosity". Yes curiosity on how each Swara (note) in a time domain turns into a beautiful melody. How can one make it sound good. How layers of Swara create a magical melody. Such questions and being an audiophile lead me here. And so MayaSwara was born.
MayaSwara meaning Magical notes, is a musical journey to bring the magical moments in life into music and make musical events into magical moments. Our effort is to bring out musical interpretations of human emotions and vice versa. Our ambition is to connect everyone in the world through music.
MayaSwara is an independent record label supporting independent artists and promoting their work. Feel free to reach out with your creative work be it music or visual arts.
MayaSwara is also a band.. MayaSwara, as a band, started performing live since April 2015 and thanks to the support of many, today we are a band of 16 artists located in Sweden, Norway, India and the USA collaborating over the internet to follow one common passion: Music!
Our inspiration comes from different genres such as World music, Fusion, rock and Indian classical music. We believe we are here to create and not compete and hence anyone can join us in our journey and enjoy the flavours of music.
