New single from Vikram Bam

Hailing from Mumbai, Vikram Bam is a 25-year-old multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and producer who stitches together threads of acoustic, rock, jazz, Western and Indian classical music as well as Bollywood influences. Vikram crafts a genre-fluid sound that offers audiences a window into his compelling artistic world which he’s been sharing since 2017.

A third-generation artist from a family surrounded in musical tradition, Vikram’s passion for storytelling shines in his musical output. His creative adventure started when he was just eight and began his training in classical piano and Indian vocals.

As he mastered multiple instruments, including guitar, Vikram headed to Berklee College of Music, where he further developed his talents in songwriting and production. Returning to Mumbai, he joined his family’s acclaimed label, Sagarika Music, stepping into the world of Bollywood as a session musician and producer, contributing to scores for films like The Kashmir Files and The Vaccine War.

Bringing us his latest release, he shares a blend of pop and cinematic production on his brand new single titled “Make A Fool.” Through vivid storytelling, the song frames themes of vulnerability, self-reflection and the pursuit of genuine connection delivered via a stunning fusion of eastern and western stylings.

Brought in by airy key tones that dance and flutter to form a dreamy soundscape, lush textures shimmer as the laid back snap of the beat and groove of bass lines cast a hazy scene. Vikram’s alluring voice enters to thread engaging melodic leads via soulful delivery, resulting in a dazzling sound that’s utterly charming and instantly memorable from start to finish. Brimming with silky melodic writing and wrapped in a delicate arrangement cut with slick lead guitar flickers, “Make A Fool” offers a stellar showcase of Vikram Bam’s highly original and thoroughly engaging musical vision.
