Lyrics:
I fly up high like a wanderer
I’m going out like a discoverer (x2) 

Done with the homework 
The ABCD, the 1234s 
I’m the talk of the town

Got the socks with the blues and
Mom for the bruises
Take me back to the playground

Got a hundred hours
of work experience 
in my god forsaken playground 
I ain’t got knowledge, I got powers

Up and down and side
to the merry go ride
I’ve been going to the playground 

To the seesaw 
and I free fall into the playground 

To the playground

Playground

   Music is Life

Since he started in 2011, Shashwat Bulusu has been turning heads with his trademark non-conforming approach toward songwriting. Shashwat’s unapologetic DIY experimentation truly makes him one of a kind. As a result, it’s incredibly difficult to put him in a box.

A singer-songwriter, producer and visual artist, Shashwat is remarkably self aware about his creative process and tries not to over-romanticise his own art. On a cursory listen to his oeuvre of musical narratives, one is bound to be struck by his fearlessness in foraying into new sonic territories. Being a multilingual artist, Shashwat writes in both English and Hindi, each allowing him to delve into unique expressions, sometimes being veiled and other times being more confrontational. An avid story-teller through his songs and his live performances, Shashwat’s songs primarily deal with themes of absurdity and self-admission, underpinned with a sense of raw emotion and vulnerability.

With 4 single releases, the A-side/B-side ‘Aabad’ marking his debut as a Hindi songwriter, 3 nationwide tours, prominent live performances at festivals such as Kochi Biennale ‘23, NH7 Weekender ‘22, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Online Concert ‘21 and scoring for the Indie film ‘Gamit’, Shashwat is steadily and firmly coming into his own, a sonic-universe that reflects his vision as a multifaceted and multidisciplinary artist.
