Sangti Ozukum's Guitar Story
Driven by early memories of the communal power of music in church and inspired by the technical mastery of icons like Nuno Bettencourt, this artist’s journey is a blend of personal passion and a mission to reshape the Indian guitar scene. Utilizing the Vola Vasti 7 to find a unique voice, she advocates for a future where women and girls are recognized leaders in studios and on stages across India. Her message is a call for resilience and self-permission, urging the next generation of female guitarists to push through the challenges of practice to find the joy of expression, ensuring the industry grows richer and more inclusive through their unique stories.
