Turya

Nicki Wells, the exceptionally gifted singer and songwriter behind TURYA, takes inspiration from Indian classical music, which she studied as a teenager. The name comes from Turiya, a Sanskrit word, meaning a state of pure consciousness, the silence one experiences after sound. This influence is echoed throughout her new single ´Falling´. Taken form her Nitin Sawhney produced debut album ´Ocean´, TURYA´s uniquely original sound fuses elements of Western folk, roots and pop with classical Indian foundations.
