Aaryan Shah has never been one to conform. With his latest album, Do You See The Birds, Too?, the Indian-American singer-songwriter pushes further into the abyss of his psyche, crafting an experience that’s as unsettling as it is hypnotic. Out now via ADA Worldwide, the project is his most introspective yet—an 11-track odyssey through the volatility of bipolar disorder, framed by a cinematic scope that echoes the thematic weight of Oppenheimer.
Opening with the eerie contrast of “Fission” and “Fusion,” Shah sets the stage for a world where chaos and stillness collide. The album’s sonic palette is meticulous, weaving sparse synths, atmospheric distortions, and ghostly vocal layers into an immersive, Dolby Atmos-infused soundscape. Standouts like “Interlinked” and “Vantage Point” shimmer with eerie elegance, while “Vienna” solidifies his evolution, marrying weightless production with raw vulnerability. And just when the journey feels too heavy to bear, Shah offers a glimmer of catharsis on the closing track, Your Life Was Never Meant To Be A Punishment—a parting whisper of defiance and hope.
To mark the album’s release, Shah hosted exclusive Dolby Atmos listening events in NYC and LA, allowing fans to step inside his world—one where every note, every sound, and every silence tells a story. Now, it’s time to step in yourself.
Since emerging in 2016, Indian-American singer-songwriter & genre-bending artist Aaryan Shah’s music has effortlessly lived between future-facing R&B, stark soul, and nocturnal pop. Building a devout audience, he transfixed fans with The Arrival [2020], The Dark Ages [2020], Codex [2022], and A Love Letter to LA [2023].
Along the way, he impressively generated nearly half-a-billion streams fueled by the likes of “Demon Time,” “Mania,” and “Renegade.” The latter catalyzed a massive surge on TikTok in 2022, inciting billions of views in the process. Plus, he emerged as the rare force of nature just as comfortable performing at Paris Fashion Week or the GRAMMY Museum
