Bharat Swamy

Bharat Swamy led the first commercially successful rock band in India.[1] He is one of the pioneers of rock music in India, and was the original composer, songwriter and vocalist for the band Agni.[2] He is an engineer by profession, but always wanted to be one of the pioneers of rock music in India with his own compositions.[3]

Agni Webbed

In 2020, Bharat Swamy launched Agni Webbed, a digital rock venture that is seen as a promising online platform.[4] He released the original song The Monster Within in May 2020 and was awarded the highest ratings for the first half of 2020 by the music communication portal Music Plus.[5] The song The Monster Within highlights the theme of depression, in order to reach out to all those who may be going through difficult and tough times with the COVID-19 pandemic throughout the world. The track has been mixed and mastered by Ashish Manchanda of Media Tribe.
Bharat Swamy has recently released a new platform that both tackles the taboo topic and helps struggling young musicians.[6]
