Who is Ady Manral?
Ady Manral is a bilingual singer-songwriter from the Himalayas, based in Landour — a quiet hill town surrounded by forests, stillness, and a way of life that deeply shapes his music.
For over a decade, the mountains have been his greatest source of inspiration, influencing both the sound and the soul of his songwriting.
Writing in English and Hindi, Ady blends acoustic folk and soft pop, exploring themes of love, longing, reflection, and the simple beauty of everyday life. His music is grounded in emotional honesty — melodic, warm, and shaped by the clarity and solitude of the hills.
His live sets blend soulful vocals, acoustic textures, and looping, offering intimate performances shaped by the simplicity and clarity he draws from everyday life in the hills.
In 2026, Ady will release Sketches from the Top of the Hills — a Visual EP Film that captures his songwriting process and daily life in Landour, offering a quiet, documentary-style look at the moments, landscapes, and emotions that shape his work.
