Lifafa is the experimental solo project of Indian musician Suryakant Sawhney, the frontman of acclaimed New Delhi indie‑jazz band Peter Cat Recording Co. Born in India, Sawhney initially studied filmmaking in San Francisco before diving into music. Under the Lifafa alias, he crafts a unique blend of Hindi‑centred folktronica that marries acoustic folk, vintage disco, and electronic textures, all delivered in his warm baritone voice. His breakthrough album Jaago (2019) earned critical acclaim for its evocative mix of nostalgic melodies and modern production. This was followed by the politically tinged and synth‑rich SUPERPOWER 2020, which channels civic disillusionment through lush soundscapes and lyrical irony. Lifafa’s music is rooted in Indian vernacular and social commentary, yet feels globally contemporary, drawing inspiration from everyday urban soundscapes and emotional memory. Known for intimate live shows and bold sonic choices, he has emerged as one of the most distinctive voices in India’s indie‑electronic scene.
