The pop artist, songwriter, and producer first fell in love with music in her mother’s studio, learning Bollywood and Classical Indian dance at just 2 years old. At 15, she competed on American Idol, where her performance received national praise, leading to features in MTV and Glamour Magazine. 

Exposure to global music has shaped Rhea’s current sound – futuristic pop with elements drawn from her roots and lyrics that encourage fans to express themselves unapologetically. Her fiery stage presence and vocals have led to performances at SXSW, the American Airlines Arena, United Nations, and festivals around the globe.

After signing her first publishing deal, Rhea was named the 2020 Songwriters Hall of Fame x BMI award recipient. In 2021, her single “Venom” debuted on Rolling Stone India, Paper Magazine, and BBC Radio 1. Streaming services have been buzzing too- Amazon Music named Rhea their 2022 Identity Festival headliner and Spotify made her the cover artist of their Created by Women playlist for “Devil In a Dress." Her latest single “Outside" was recently featured in Vogue India for its statement music video, and is going viral on TikTok and Instagram as an international hot-girl anthem.
