Penn Masala
Penn Masala was born with the desire to create music that traversed traditional cultural boundaries and captured the experience of growing up with competing Eastern and Western cultures. As the first group in the world to bring the sounds of the Indian subcontinent to a cappella, they've consistently been at the forefront of South Asian-Western fusion ever since. Along the way, they've met and sung for heads-of-state, prominent businessmen, and international leaders, while traveling to some of the most vibrant cities across the world. Their  music has grown to attract fans from all backgrounds, and  in turn have been influenced by a wide range of cultures. After pioneering Hindi-English mashups, they bring together Western pop and Eastern melodies to form harmonies that cannot be heard anywhere. Penn Masala's original compositions, complete with innovative sounds, rich textures, and complex arrangements, showcase the distinct sound.
The world’s first and premier South Asian a cappella group, was formed in 1996 at the University of Pennsylvania. With seven full-length studio albums and sold-out performances at universities and venues across the globe, the group has successfully pioneered South Asian a cappella.
Their albums, ordered by release date, are Awaaz, 11 PM, Soundcheck, Brown Album, Pehchaan, On Detours, and Panoramic, as well as a compilation album, Out of Stock. Also, they have performed for A.R. Rahman, Mukesh Ambani, Sachin Tendulkar, Lakshmi Mittal, Anderson Cooper, Ban-Ki-Moon, and President Barack Obama, among others.

Penn Masala’s music has been influenced by the Eastern and Western cultures that represent the group’s membership and it continues to inspire the South-Asian American population.
