New Delhi, Feb 24: Depot48 has steadily built a reputation as one of the city’s most consistent live music venues, a space where independent artists and audiences come together in an intimate, unpretentious setting. Continuing that momentum, Depot48 will host rising singer-songwriter Shriya Rao on 27th February 2026 for a special live performance, for her first ever performance in Delhi NCR.
Over the years, Depot48 has focused on programming that feels current and rooted at the same time, spotlighting emerging voices while keeping the experience close-knit and community-driven. The upcoming showcase with Shriya reflects that approach, bringing a young independent artist into a room that prioritises listening as much as performing.
Shriya Rao, a fast-rising voice in the independent music circuit, has been gaining attention for her honest songwriting and genre-fluid sound. Moving between indie, soul and contemporary influences, her music carries an ease and vulnerability that resonates strongly with live audiences. At Depot48, she will present an intimate set that places her evolving body of work front and centre.
Girjashanker, Co-founder, Depot48 said
“Supporting young independent artists has always been important to us. We’ve built Depot48 as a venue where artists can connect with audiences in a real way. Shriya’s music feels honest and unfiltered, which makes this collaboration feel natural.”
Vikas, Co-Founder, Depot48, adds,
“For us, it’s never just about hosting a gig. It’s about creating an atmosphere where both the artist and the audience feel present. Shriya represents the kind of emerging talent we’re excited to back.”
Sharing her thoughts ahead of the performance, Shriya Rao says,
“Playing at Depot48 already feels special because the room really listens. It’s an intimate space, and that allows me to share my music the way it’s meant to be heard. I started writing songs when I was 16, mostly as a way to make sense of things I didn’t yet have the words for. I’m looking forward to creating a moment that feels less like a show and more like something shared.”
With this showcase, Depot48 continues to underline its commitment to live, independent music, keeping the focus on the artist, the room and the shared experience. In a city that’s constantly evolving, the space remains dedicated to creating moments that feel intimate, honest and rooted in community.
