Raf-Saperra & Priya Ragu

Astral People and Handsome Tours presents, sonic treats from the South Asian diaspora with a duo of genre-bending global stars

Priya Ragu
Multi-talented Tamil-Swiss singer and rapper Priya Ragu came to global attention with her distinct brand of “raguwavy”, a sonic tapestry that weaves together R&B, soul and vibrant electro beats with the traditional Tamil folk of her heritage. Her buzzy mixtape damshestamil (2021) and debut album Santhosam (2023) were hailed for their originality and next-generation sound.

Raf-Saperra
Mixing traditional Punjabi folk vocals with UK garage, drill and Afrobeat, South London native Raf-Saperra has become one of his country’s most-talked about exports since his 2020 debut, “Glassy Riddim”. Led by his garage anthem “N.L.S. (Nach Le Soniye)” (2022) and last year’s killer mixtape debut Ruff Around the Edges, Saperra’s bhangra bops have been rocking everywhere from Berghain to Glastonbury.
