Essentially the Soul Queen of the Indian subcontinent, Vasundhara Vee is as close of a legend to Aretha Franklin we might ever see in this timeline of the Indian music scene. And just like the Aretha classic "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves", she believes there is no force stronger than women standing up for each other.

She is seen in the finest Soul, RnB and Jazz ensembles across the world. In this episode, Vasundhara taps into the intricacies of music as a means to spread joy, "personal humanity" and self-love.

Check out her original release "The Everyman" with her contemporary band Merkaba- out on all streaming platforms.

Also, her debut novel "Big Dreams, Bold Choices" is the perfect stepping guide for all aspiring musicians, and a truly fascinating read.
