Rauhan Malik

With over 700M streams on “Ishq,” a track that charted on Billboard India, and a sound that seamlessly blends Kashmiri folk with contemporary pop and rock, Rauhan has emerged as one of India’s fastest-growing independent artists.

Currently ranked among the top 10 most popular artists in Indian Indie, Rauhan’s music spans from his 2019 debut “Raasta” to his 2024 breakout “Ishq,” which has crossed 3 billion views across digital platforms. Rooted in the stories, sounds, and spirit of Kashmir, his music carries a distinctly Indian identity while connecting with audiences across the country and the diaspora.

For Depot 48, Rauhan would bring a dynamic live set that sits naturally within the venue’s indie, alternative, and contemporary music space. His ability to move between soulful Kashmiri folk, atmospheric rock, and accessible pop makes his performance both musically distinctive and highly engaging in a live setting. With a growing audience and strong digital presence, Rauhan would be a compelling addition to Depot 48’s programming and an artist who can deliver a memorable, culturally rooted live experience.
