As the first group in the world to bring the sounds of the Indian subcontinent to a cappella, weve consistently been at the forefront of South Asian-Western fusion ever since. Along the way, weve met and sung for heads-of-state, prominent businessmen, and international leaders, while traveling to some of the most vibrant cities across the world: including several India Tours. We have been fortunate enough to have performed for President Obama at the White House, at the Indian International Film Academy (IIFA) Awards, and in the Hollywood feature film and soundtrack for Pitch Perfect 2 which received an American Music Award for Best Soundtrack in 2015. Our music has grown to attract fans from all backgrounds, and we in turn have been influenced by a wide range of cultures. The Hindi-English mashups we pioneered bring together Western pop and Eastern melodies to form harmonies you wont hear anywhere else. Penn Masalas original compositions, complete with innovative sounds, rich textures, and complex arrangements,showcase the distinct sound weve created. Since 1996, we have released 10 full-length studio albums: Awaaz, 11 PM, Soundcheck, Brown Album, Pehchaan, On Detours, Panoramic, Kaavish, Resonance, and Yuva of which the latter seven are available for streaming and purchase on all major music sites.
