Listening Shed: Agatha and Aadya

Agatha Mantuang and Aadya Jaswal shared the stage for an intimate night of original music. From easygoing melodies to resonant lyrics, this singer-songwriter session brought two distinct voices together, grounded in identity, memory, and the magic of song.

6 June 2025

This singer-songwriter session featured Agatha Mantuang (accompanied by Lian) and Aadya Jaswal - two artists shaping their own soundscapes in the independent music scene. Agatha brought dreamy textures and reflections on identity and ancestry, while Aadya leaned into honest lyricism and shifting emotional tones. Both performers write from lived experience, blending folk, ambient, and indie influences to craft songs that linger. The show invited listeners into a shared space - quiet, close, and personal - where storytelling took the lead.
