About Anya

Anya Gupta is a sixteen-year-old singer-songwriter from Memphis, Tennessee whose music celebrates self-love, individuality, and the light we all carry within us.

“For me, songwriting is a way to clear my mind. When I write about the challenges I face as a teenager, it helps me understand them and move through them.”

That honesty runs through every track she writes, blending thoughtful lyricism with melodies built to lift people up and embrace who they are.

She began studying voice at age six and has spent nearly a decade performing — honing her songwriting at Langston Studios and earning finalist honors in The Factor and Delta Songwriting Star.

Her debut album Becoming is out now: seven songs, including the focus track “Not For You” and the singles “Tat Twam Asi,” “Awaken the Lights,” and “You’re Original,” inviting listeners to celebrate who they are and let their inner light shine.
