Biography
With a voice of honey, a message for the soul, and often a guitar in hand, the music of songbird, iNDRANi is a welcome breath of fresh air.
“While other female singers have been busy copying the latest version of the American male’s fantasy, Indra has been digging deep into her Caribbean roots in order to find that which is closest to her spiritually and musically. When all is said and done, it’s all about the music, and iNDRANi to my mind has demonstrated that she has learned her trade well. In every department she ranks among the best there is, and I find no difficulty in saying, that across all entertainment disciplines, she is the best and most naturally gifted female artist to have arrived on the Caribbean entertainment scene. Hopefully it won’t be too long before the rest of the world acknowledges that the same should be said for everywhere." [EDDY GRANT – Music Icon]
