amri fuses her roots in Indian Carnatic music into her much-loved Soul and R&B to create a fresh, new, colourful sound. Her lyrics touch on her exposure in the world as a young woman of colour; translating this into both lyric and sound. Born and primarily brought up in London alongside Guernsey, amri draws from these experiences in her writing.
With so many inspirations she draws from, her soulful, sweet melodies will surely hold a piece of something you love. Her debut EP ‘grooves in a SMILE’ opens the world of her music for you to feel, sing and move with her. Having been interviewed on BBC Bristol’s Breakfast show, songs featured on BBC Introducing Radio and showcased in RESONATE and KICKDRUM magazines, amri has been gaining attention, and seems not to be slowing down.
Now based in Bristol with her band, amri blends between the smooth, sultry edges of jazz and soul with brass and sitar, creating a unique fusion that’s not one to miss..
