From the bustling heart of New Delhi emerges HARQATT, an Indie Pop band that’s redefining the sound of contemporary Indian music. Founded by Vishal Mehta, one of India’s most dynamic drummers and music producers, HARQATT is a celebration of rhythm, melody, and emotion — blending Indian musical sensibilities with modern pop energy.
The six-member ensemble brings together a powerful mix of artistry and innovation. Snehi’s expressive vocals form the emotional core of the band’s sound, while Vishal Mehta’s commanding drumming drives the music forward with precision and passion. Harun on bass and Shivam on electric guitar create the harmonic and rhythmic backbone, complemented by Harsh’s lush keyboard textures. Behind the console, Vishal Sharma, the band’s sound engineer, shapes HARQATT’s signature sonic depth both on stage and in the studio.
HARQATT’s story builds upon Vishal Mehta’s extensive musical journey. Before forming the band, Mehta released his solo album Alone (2017), followed by Only You (2021)—both of which established his reputation as a versatile composer and producer. In 2019, he released a single – Guftagu that has since become a live favorite, performed regularly by the band and loved by audiences across venues.
Now, HARQATT is gearing up for their new full-length album, featuring 14 original songs that capture the essence of contemporary India—fresh, emotional, and globally resonant. Each track promises to showcase the band’s signature blend of heartfelt songwriting, tight musicianship, and cutting-edge production.
Rooted in collaboration and creative freedom, HARQATT stands as one of the most exciting voices in India’s independent music scene today. Their music isn’t just heard—it’s felt, resonating deeply with audiences through stories of love, hope, and the rhythm of everyday life.
