Shubham Tageja — Musician & Producer
About
A Life Shaped
by Sound & Tradition
"At eleven, I heard a tune on the piano — and simply played it back. That moment set the course of my entire life."
Shubham Tageja is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and educator with over 20 years of experience spanning classical Indian music, folk fusion, and experimental sound. Born and raised in Delhi, India, Shubham trained under some of the subcontinent's most revered masters — carrying on the ancient guru-shishya parampara tradition of learning directly at the feet of a teacher.
His guitar journey began under the late Sonam Sherpa of Parikrama — one of India's most iconic rock bands — earning him the highest rank in India through Trinity College London and Rockschool examinations. His flute studies with Guru Sujit Mandal have spanned over 13 years of devoted classical training.
A journey to Jaisalmer, Rajasthan led him to learn Algoza and Khartal under Padmashri Taga Ram Bheel in the most traditional manner. The ancient vocal percussion art of Konnakol was studied at the World Konnakol Academy, Bangalore under B.R. Somashekar Jois. A certified Audio Engineer trained at the Academy of Recording Arts (FTII Alumni), Shubham now bridges ancient sound with contemporary production.
Now based in Derby, England, he brings this rare depth of knowledge to performances, recordings, workshops, and one-on-one teaching — connecting people across the world with the living heritage of Indian music.
