Singer/Songwriter
Aashna is an alt-pop singer/songwriter from New Delhi, India. With lush vocal arrangements and uplifting melodies, she write songs exploring the beauty in everyday moments - from the joys of falling in love to the aftermath of a painful breakup, and of course, the ever present theme in every young adult’s life, finding yourself and knowing that you’ll be okay in the end. Her song ‘Choke,’ about almost losing her voice to New Delhi’s hazardous pollution levels, won 3rd place in Berklee’s 2021 Songs 4 Social Change contest and can be found on Youtube.

"Choke"
(Berklee Songs 4 Social Change Award Winning Song)
Smoke
In my lungs
Breathe it in and wash it down with dust
Coal
And petrol fumes
I miss the way the flowers bloomed
‘Cause I can’t see the stars above us
Poisoned lakes and burning towers
Back to earth in graves that we dug
Gone from green to gray
It makes me
Choke
I dream
of daughters
who can breathe without machines
and earth will heal
without us
Is it too late for us to change?
‘Cause we can’t see the stars above us
Poisoned lakes and burning towers
back to earth in graves that we dug
Gone from green to gray
It makes me
Choke
Burns my throat
it keeps me shut indoors
it makes it hurt to sing
it makes me
Can we change
Before earth heals
Without us?
