Where raw emotion meets musical fearlessness

Shaan Belchada sat down at a drum kit at the age of three — and never really stood up. That first rhythmic obsession has grown into command of more than twenty instruments, most of them self-taught through pure curiosity, and a sound that lands where alternative rock's raw nerve meets the harmonic depth of jazz and the precision of progressive metal.

Formally trained in Western classical piano and drums, with roots in Hindustani classical music, Shaan taught himself the rest by ear and instinct. He completed the highest conservatoire performance grade with top honours and is a national solo-instrumentalist champion — recognition that points as much to his expressive maturity as to his technique.

His debut album Echoes of the Undiscovered Earth and solo-piano EP The Harrowing introduced an instrumental voice already fully formed: cinematic, atmospheric and harmonically adventurous. His next record, Words on a Paper, is the turn inward — every lyric, melody and part written, performed and produced by Shaan alone.

At thirteen, he plays more than twenty instruments, writes songs, and sounds like no one else.

Words on a Paper

Shaan's most personal record yet, and his first as a singer-songwriter — every lyric, melody, riff, beat and vocal written and performed entirely by him. A complete artist statement at thirteen. One artist. One vision. No compromises.

One player, twenty voices

It began with drums at three. A decade on, Shaan moves between the kit, the keys, six strings and the studio with the same fluency — writing and performing every part of his records himself.

05Artistic Identity

Three worlds, one complete artist

I.
Alternative Rock
the nerve

The emotional gut-punch — raw, direct and unguarded. The voice of the songs and the spirit of the writing.

II.
Jazz
the brain

Harmonic intelligence — dense chords, adventurous changes and a taste for tension and release learned at the piano.

III.
Progressive Metal
the engine

Technical ferocity and precision — a drummer's soul at the centre of it all, driving arrangements that never sit still.
