Nikhil Iyer is on a mission to blend the music of India and America. With soft, melancholic vocals amongst a blended production, Iyer takes you away to another place entirely with the beautifully presented ‘Sanam (don’t go away)’.

Full of pop-woven melodies and an empowering sense of belonging to both genres of Indian and pop, Iyer is swooning in his delivery. ‘Sanam (don’t go away)’ is a meaningful song that is about falling in love with someone and losing your way, however the song is musically transitioned into an uplifting pop track that has Hindi sensibilities. It’s a must listen, especially if you want to broaden your sonic horizons. Check it out now.

“Oh love, oh my love, don’t go away from me.” These lyrics are not below the surface by any means, but they bring to light a very desperate feeling in a lover’s heart. This song talks about the hopelessness that builds within you when you fall in love with someone, knowing that you can’t live without them, knowing that you’re afraid to live a life without them.”
