Achanté a.k.a. Chantelle Menezes is a Toronto/Mumbai based singer-songwriter, vocal producer and multi-instrumentalist who uses music as a medium of diasporic storytelling. Not one to let genre dictate things, she proudly expresses a complex layer of identities through her soulful music which kinda sounds like Erykah Badu meets Alicia Keys. She’s accompanied by an equally soulful powerhouse on guitar, Rooh, who enjoys melodious Daniel Caesar as much as shredding Pearl Jam, and is bringing Toronto’s attention to Carnatic music.
