About Our Chosen Artist- Sandhya Acharya

Sandhya Acharya is just an ordinary teenager who comes from Wembley. She is 17 years old and was born on April 30th 1994. Her interests into the whole music career stems from her father who inspired her from a very young age. Her success is further enhanced through her coming from a singing background. Currently she is a Grade 7 singer and a Grade 4 pianist. Sandhya is an Artist who doesn’t specialise in one genre; she performs and enjoys different types of music. This allows her to target a wider audience as they can get a variety in the music she performs. Her favourite artist is Demi Lovarto as her “voice is amazing and her song writing is inspirational”. She also has a YouTube account where on a regular basis she uploads new singles.
In July 2010, she performed ‘You might need somebody’ by Randy Crawford at Wembley Arena. This was a musical event where many Artists performed. Due to her successful performance, she was then on the cover of The Brent Magazine (July Edition).  Furthermore, she performs in many family events in East London. This gives her the chance to develop become more cultural by performing cultural songs.
Sandhya has participated in many charity events inside and outside her local school; Preston Manor High School where she is representing her whole school aswel as other students. In ‘One World’ she performed with a band called ‘The Opposites’ which are a group of talented musicians who play instruments such as drums, guitars and keyboards. Alongside with their help, she successfully sung ‘Breakeven’ by The Script. This had an optimistic event as she was better known in her area due to people outside of school attending this charity event.
She is part of ‘The Band’ which is known as The Institute Of Contemporary Music’ in Kilburn. In these few hours every week, she writes new songs and rehearses for upcoming gigs. A recent gig The Band performed was in summer 2011 at Gladstone Park which was a festival of music. As a lead singer she sung Jessie J- Price Tag and a song produced by the band.
‘Tell me your sorry’ is the recent song she has posted on many sites. The message of this song can target teenage girls who go through what she is conveying. In the future she plans to record an EP which is an album without being signed. A few songs to come out soon are: ‘Don’t wanna leave you behind’ and Rise up (with an Indian twist).
