Rishab has emerged as a trailblazer in the neo-classical movement of India, from the game of Thrones and Zara Zara’s viral rearring to Chanakya and Tandavam. The Burning Ghat comes immediately after its acclaimed cedar for mental health India tour, using music as a bridge for emotional treatment.
With each release, Rishab Rikhiram Sharma continued to shape what many people are saying the sound of New India – a sound inherited, yet rebuilded boldly for the global audience. Their music echoes with both young listeners who seek authenticity and older generations that find comfort in the tradition.
