About Me

"Caitanya. [Shay-tanya] is a blues RnB/soul singer and songwriter who is a rising star yet to be discovered in today’s Australian music industry. She writes, sings, programs, records and produces her own songs, and has been writing her own songs since the age of 13.
Caitanya.’s beats are smooth and cruisy, her voice is strong and heart-felt, her arrangements are an ingenious blend of contemporary RnB ‘pop’ and acoustic bluesy sound scapes, and her songs have both a sincere truth and sassy attitude running through them.
Caitanya. writes songs about her thoughts, feelings and experiences in life. She aims to express emotion and honesty through her voice, so that her listeners can connect to not only the messages within the songs, but the emotions that created them also. She aspires to move people through writing and singing about real and honest reflections."
Caitanya. is currently working on an EP, due to be finished late 2007.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 8/15/2006
Band Members:On the recordings of 'Real' and 'Truly Free' I was fortunate enough to have ROB MCMULLAN onboard, who played both guitar and bass for me. He is such a fantastic musician and has made a world of difference to my tracks. Thankyou for your expertise and assistance in the mixing process also.
I was very lucky to have IAN PEREZ play keys on these two tracks, he is an amazing pianist who gave these songs some added beauty and warmth. Thankyou Ian.
My very close friend, teacher, shrink (haha), shopping buddy and motivator, CHELSEA WILSON sang backing vocals for me on both these tracks also, and it is so nice to have her voice adding a thicker texture to the tracks (love you Chels).
THANKS TO ALL WHO WERE PART OF THESE TRACKS, I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL...

Alicia Keys, Erykah Badu, Musiq Soulchild, Earth Wind & Fire, Stevie Wonder, Lenny Kravitz (the old stuff), Jackson (the old stuff), Bob Marley, Beyonce, Damian Marley, Mariah Carey... plus many more amazing artists who's sound has moved me in some way.
