Early years

edit

Nitin Sawhney was raised in Rochester, Kent, England, by first-generation British Indian parents.[17] As a child he studied piano, classical and flamenco guitar, sitar and tabla.[4] He has been quoted speaking about his early life as one of three brothers and his musical influences: "My mum and dad both listened to Indian classical music, but also flamenco, Cuban music, a lot of crooners and a lot of pop. My brothers listened to a lot of rock music. So, I was listening to everything from the Doors to Led Zeppelin and a lot of jazz."[8][18] He is the cousin of Bollywood actress Lara Dutta.

He attended Sir Joseph Williamson's Mathematical School.[19] Subsequently, he studied law at Liverpool University for a short time.[20]

Sawhney moved to London, where he met up with old university friend Sanjeev Bhaskar; together they created the comedy team The Secret Asians. From 1996 to 1998, the pair were part of the award-winning BBC Radio sketch show Goodness Gracious Me which transferred to BBC TV in 1998 to 2001.[21] Refocusing on music, Sawhney's solo career began in 1993, when he released his debut album, Spirit Dance, on his own label.[22]

Solo career

edit

Sawhney has released more than 20 studio albums. He has received 17 major national awards for his album work and is a recipient of the Ivor Novello Lifetime Achievement award.[2][4][15]

In 1999, Sawhney released his fourth Gold-selling album, Beyond Skin, on London's Outcaste Records, which took a prestigious Mercury Music Prize nomination and won him the coveted South Bank Show Award.[4] After a subsequent signing to Richard Branson's V2 Records, Sawhney released the Silver-certified Prophesy in 2001, winning a MOBO Award as well as a BBC Radio 3 Music Award. Sawhney's seventh album, Philtre, was released in May 2005, taking yet another BBC Radio 3 Award, and in 2008, his eighth album, London Undersound, released on Cooking Vinyl, featured artwork by Antony Gormley and performances from Paul McCartney, Anoushka Shankar, Imogen Heap and Natty, among many others.[7]

Sawhney's 2011 studio work, Last Days of Meaning, previewed at the Royal Albert Hall in May 2011, centres on a character from actor, John Hurt, and follows the metaphorical, Dickensian journey of a lonely and intransigent man.[citation needed] His 2013 box-set release One Zero was recorded live-to-vinyl as a celebration of ten albums releases. Nitin's tenth studio album, Dystopian Dream, was released in November 2015, and his eleventh Immigrants came out in March 2021.[7] His latest album IDENTITY was released in October 2023 with Warner Music.[23]
