Raja Kumari is a name synonymous with creativity, talent, and innovation. She is an artist who has managed to bridge the gap between east and west, ancient and modern, and traditional and contemporary with her music. Her latest album, ‘The Bridge,’ which is releasing worldwide on April 28th, is a testament to her artistic prowess and her ability to create something beautiful even in the face of uncertainty.
The album is an ode to goddess Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of knowledge, music, art, and wisdom. It is a journey that takes us from ancient to future, west back to the east, and establishes the message that music is the bridge between us and god. The album is Raja Kumari’s first full-length independent album under her own label – Godmother Records, and it features nine songs that are a blend of different genres and styles.
The theme of the album is particularly relevant in the context of the pandemic. The world has been gripped by uncertainty, fear, and anxiety, and music has been one of the few things that have provided solace and comfort to people. The pandemic forced Raja Kumari to slow down and reflect, and it is during this time that she was able to create ‘The Bridge.’ In her own words, the album is her pandemic baby, and it is a testament to her creativity and resilience.
