A calculated rhythmic precision dictates the flow of distorted synths and abused guitar pedals as singer-songwriter Sijya balances her deep-yet-delicate vocals on her six-track EP Leather & Brass. It will be released on September 12 under the UK-based label, One Little Independent Records, which has been associated with a powerhouse of talent, including iconic musician Björk and American dream pop artiste Glasser. Sijya is the first Indian musician to have been signed to the label.
