San Francisco-based Arula is a singer-songwriter, DJ, and electronic music producer.  Arula's catalog aims to unite and empower listeners from different backgrounds and cultural experiences by viewing music as a sacred expression of a universal language. Rarely succumbing to one sound, her music can be described as dark and ambient with intentional slivers of effervescent moments.

 

With a rich foundation of songwriting, production, and instrumentation, Arula's brand of human nature-inspired music powers previous works like her latest EP, We Belong, and a handful of singles. Recording original music since a young child with a cassette tape, Arula's journey is rooted in her relentless curiosity of the inner worlds we often have difficulty exploring. Her songs evoke deep emotion and lure listeners into a meditative state while getting swept away by her celestial harmonies and matured ear for production.

 

In Arula's sonic world, music is a path to awakening, a gateway to exploring the brightest and darkest parts of ourselves. Her music is inspired by the human experience and her journey to find meaning within herself and explore duality as a path to unity. In a world that feels so polarizing, Arula is an advocate for nuance— believing that now is the perfect time for self-discovery and emancipating ourselves from the disempowering narrative we've been fed for so long.

 

As a lover of many different types of music, Arula interplays with genres while using her voice as a bridge to ethereal realms. Arula was raised in a household that regularly blasted everything from Led Zeppelin and Fleetwood Mac to Alice in Chains and Nirvana. With a hauntingly sultry vibe reminiscent of Kate Bush, FKA Twigs, and Sevdaliza, Arula's sound is nostalgic yet unparalleled.   In her years of artistry, Arula has performed and facilitated at a multitude of venues and festivals (Oregon Eclipse, LIB, Burning Man) and has released music on various labels like MöonBabe, Cosmic Awakenings, and High Vibe Records. She also has a rich history of intentional collaborations with various musicians and producers, including Aurka, Alexis Flow, David Starfire, DrumSpyder, Ejé, Fraktal, Geometrae, Heather Christie, Israel Vich, Jef Stott, Kompass, Lemurian, Quiet Son, Shelajit, Vitamindevo, 9Theory, and more.
