AMRIT KAUR

Born into a Sikh/Panjabi family in Tottenham, Amrit Kaur is a singer-songwriter and Sarangi player in the genres of R&B, soul and Punjabi folk. Praised by legendary producer and Def Jam co-founder Rick Rubin for her exceptional live vocals, Amrit Kaur has commanded the stages of Glastonbury Festival, The Great Escape Festival, TEDx, Somerset House Summer Series, All Points East Festival, BBC Radio Theatre, Jaipur Literature Festival in India and the UN General Assembly alongside Bob Marley's grandson, Skip Marley. More recently, she has played to sold-out crowds at The Jazz Cafe London and Hootananny Brixton.

Spotlighted by BBC Music Introducing and Sky Arts and lauded by BBC Asian Network as a Future Sounds 2020 artist, Amrit Kaur is an unparalleled talent with an unfaltering vision. She is an independent artist and she's only just getting started.

In 2020, Amrit featured alongside the Marley family in the new version of 'One Love' for UNICEF, currently at 1.9 million views and over 2.6 million streams.

In 2022, she featured on Congo Natty’s 'Ancestorz', which saw the jungle music pioneer from Tottenham hit number one on the Global Spotify Chart.

Amrit Kaur's last three self-releases have been produced by GRAMMY, BRIT and Mercury Prize winning producer Jonathan Quarmby and recorded at London's historic RAK Studios.


RADIO

Amrit's full BBC Music Glastonbury set was played on BBC6 Music by Cerys Mathews. Her music features on the Spotify 'One Love' playlist which has over 2 million followers. She has performed live on BBC Woman's Hour and has appeared multiple times on the award-winning The Guilty Feminist podcast. Her music has also been played on BBC Radio 2, 3, 4 and BBC Asian Network. An early version of her single 'Hi & Lo' was Track of the Week on BBC Asian Network in 2016.


UPCOMING SINGLE

Amrit's upcoming single 'What's Going' On' is produced by Mercury Prize winning producer Jonathan Quarmby (Benjamin Clementine), recorded at the legendary RAK Studios. Paying homage to Sade and Mariah Carey as well as her Panjabi vocal inspirations Reshma and Abida Parveen, this soulful record is a raw and intimate reflection on bitter-sweet times we romanticise, yearning for a positive outlook for the future. The music video switches between an inner voice that juxtaposes the reality to romanticised idyllic relationship.
