Born in Texas and raised in Bangalore, India, singer-songwriter and composer Prithvi Prakash was first introduced to Carnatic music at a young age. Her background in Indian classical music continues to shape her sound as both a composer and a songwriter.
Prakash’s recent single, “Ghost,” is as haunting as it is delicate. The guitar falls into a waterfall-like fingerpicking pattern—gentle and fluid—mirroring a top-line melody that leans folk but feels angelic and ethereal. It’s the kind of song that briefly lifts you out of your own body.
On the making of the track, Prakash says, “‘Ghost’ was born out of one of the most painful periods of my life. With this song, I wanted to capture that haunting feeling and create an otherworldly, ethereal soundscape.”
Pain can often shape something beautiful, and “Ghost” is exactly that—an achingly tender composition that deserves your full attention.
It takes your hand and guides you toward the emotions you may have been avoiding, but need to feel for your highest good.
Intensely minimal and intimate, “Ghost” is meant to be experienced and absorbed.
Prakash’s wordplay and melodic instinct make this track something precious—something to be treasured.
