The rising musician finds his feet on a debut album which explores \u2018losing the breakup\u2019 and creative misdirections turned good.<\/p>\n

Words by\u00a0Zoya Raza-Sheikh<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>

If you\u2019ve listened to his music, it will come as no surprise that Dhruv Sharma is a Pisces. Known mononymously as Dhruv to his fans, the singer-songwriter crafts compellingly introspective pop and gained attention for earworm \u2018double take\u2019 at the dawn of TikTok music virality in 2021. Since then, he\u2019s further proved his water sign credentials with delicate songs exploring memory, nostalgia and an acute awareness of his internal emotional temperature.<\/p>\n

Originally hailing from London, the British-Indian musician moved to Singapore at the age of two and recalls an eclectic musical initiation which spanned Hindi-language songs from Bollywood movies, chart-topping pop and British ballads from the likes of Adele and Amy Winehouse. Early on, his taste in tunes spanned continents \u2013 perhaps giving rise to his international appeal, which has seen the artist chart in the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.<\/p>\n

When he talks to GAY TIMES<\/em>, the 25-year-old artist is on the precipice of a major milestone in his creative journey: the release of his debut album Private Blizzard<\/em>. Honest and vulnerable \u2013 single \u2018Speed of Light\u2019 explores the feeling of having \u2018lost\u2019 a breakup \u2013 it marks a major evolution for the artist, and his most stirring work to date.<\/p>\n

Below, we catch up with the singer-songwriter to go deep on the new album, discuss his formative musical memories and to hear about the queer artists who shaped him.<\/p>\n

How are you today \u2013 what have you been up to?<\/h3>\n

I flew into London this morning from New York. I spent like half the day sleeping and half the day catching up on the work I missed while I was sleeping. So, overall, a wash of a day. It\u2019s 11pm and I\u2019m probably going to be up for a while because of the jet lag.<\/p>\n

Not ideal! So, onto the music. Since making your breakthrough in 21, what have you learned about yourself?<\/h3>\n

I\u2019ve learned to trust my intuition more. This job can be a mind fuck and sometimes the \u201crational choice\u201d isn\u2019t the best one \u2013 I\u2019ve had to learn that the hard way. I\u2019ve also become better at separating my self-worth from commercial performance. After my song \u2018double take\u2019 went viral in 2021, I felt like I had to create some big statement song that recaptured the success of it. For a few months I was consumed with this idea and made shit music that I hated. I\u2019ve definitely come back to a place of making things because I love them, even if no one else does, and that\u2019s where I want to be forever.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/em><\/p>

Your style is eclectic, blending different sonic influences into a cohesive sound. What music did you grow up listening to?<\/h3>\n

My parents are from India and they mostly listened to Hindi songs from Bollywood movies. I absorbed a lot of that. At the same time, I was obsessed with the music I\u2019d hear on the radio in the taxis in Singapore, where I grew up. It was a lot of mainstream pop but there were also songs like \u2018Back to Black\u2019 and \u2018Chasing Pavements\u2019, which remain two of my favourite songs to this day. I feel really nostalgic for that era of British soul music in the 2000s.<\/p>\n

You have a huge international audience \u2013 what do you think makes people connect with your music?<\/h3>\n

I\u2019m not sure. I only write songs from personal experience and I think listeners can feel when something is real and when it isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Who are the LGBTQIA+ artists that inspire you most and why?<\/h3>\n

I will always have a soft spot for Troye Sivan\u2019s music. His album Blue Neighbourhood<\/em> felt like a true friend when I was closeted in high school. I\u2019ve loved all of his records since, especially his In A Dream<\/em> EP.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favourite music memory?<\/h3>\n

Playing shows in India last summer. Most of my extended family live there and I never really imagined a world in which they would get to see me play. My grandmother, who is 90, came to my Delhi gig and brought all of her friends which was really cute. It was surreal to play a sold-out show and then to go home and sleep in the bedroom I spent a lot of my childhood in.<\/p>\n

Can you tell us more about your debut album, Private Blizzard<\/em>?<\/h3>\n

The contrast of the words \u201cprivate\u201d and \u201cblizzard\u201d is a good indication of what it\u2019s going to sound like. It\u2019s intimate and vulnerable but sonically very big. Lots of instruments. I made it in Nashville, which is famously called \u2018music city\u201d, and we had a group of really phenomenal live musicians play on every song on the album.<\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>

What did the creative process for this album look like?<\/h3>\n

I wrote a lot of it outside of the studio and workshopped the lyrics in coffee shops, libraries and train stations. The process spanned different cities, too: New York, London, Singapore and Nashville. My main collaborator, JT, would then help me refine it in the studio and would hone in on the production details.<\/p>\n

What is something you learned to embrace while making the album?<\/h3>\n

The uninspired moments. There\u2019s nothing linear about making an album and at some point in the process I stopped beating myself up for having an unproductive day. I just kept persisting with it and reasoned that it was all a part of the process of creating. Wrong turns eventually lead to right turns.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the meaning behind your song \u2018Speed of Light\u2019?<\/h3>\n

\u2018Speed of Light\u2019 is about feeling like you \u2018lost\u2019 the break up. It\u2019s watching an ex quickly move on and wondering whether they really cared about you as much as they said they did.<\/p>\n

Lastly, what are your big plans after the album?<\/h3>\n

I\u2019m opening for Jordan Rakei in Europe. Then, I\u2019m heading on my own solo run in the US and Asia at the top of next year.\u00a0 A deluxe Private Blizzard could be in the works or maybe even a new album entirely. I\u2019m trying to keep an open mind.<\/p>\n

Private Blizzard is out now on RCA Records.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
