An introduction

About the music.

Indian Ocean brings folk traditions, rock and jazz into the same musical conversation. The band's recordings offer several ways into that approach: the album Kandisa, the collaborations on Tandanu, and the later release Tu Hai each provide a different starting point.

Alongside its independent catalogue, the band has composed for films including Black Friday and Masaan. Explore the album recordings first, then follow the official video channel to hear how the music develops through performance and collaboration.
