Seela

Austin, Texas singer/songwriter. Born in Ontario to Indian immigrants, Seela found her way to Austin after college in the usual way: with a guitar and no real plan. Inspired by Austin’s live music scene, she was experimenting with her own songwriting at home on a borrowed four-track recorder. One day, she wandered into a basement jazz club called The Elephant Room on a quest to experience the unfamiliar adult world of happy hour. She immediately got hooked on The Jazz Pharaohs, was cajoled into singing with them and inevitably became part of the band.
