Chandra releases brand new single ‘Over the Waterfall’
With a raw and powerful voice and a larger-than-life character, Chandra combines his extraordinary vocal timbre and range with stories surrounding the human condition, journey of self-discovery and tales of mental health – things most of us will, at some point in life, experience.
The musician’s only aim is to inspire others to speak out. With influences that nod to the likes of David Bowie, The Beatles and The Carpenters, Chandra infuses brit-pop in his music which creates a sense of nostalgia and warmth.
Speaking on the track, Chandra said: “Growing up my parents’ record player always had Bowie, The Beatles, The Carpenters on loop.
I grew up learning what a great melody was. My teenage years were rocket-fuelled along by Suede, Blur, Oasis, Manics, Supergrass, Elastica, Mansun, Radiohead, Coldplay… but it was REM’s 1995 Monster Tour at Milton Keynes Bowl that lit the spark before all that.
From then on I knew that all I wanted to do was perform my own songs live to thousands of people.”
Chandra is known for fronting alternative-rock band Circa in his late teens for seven years which saw him progress more than ever at the start of his musical career.
