In 2026, Neha presented her signature concert experience, Chaandni Raat: The Broad Mehfil, at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica, bringing together audiences for an immersive evening of music, poetry, and storytelling inspired by the traditional South Asian mehfil.

I love private events where I get to really connect with a small audience that is there to enjoy the kind of music I sing.

My programs combine live music with stories and context that help guests connect with the traditions, emotions, and history behind each song. This approach has made me a sought-after performer for corporate cultural celebrations, South Asian Heritage Month programming, Diwali events, leadership retreats, and multicultural gatherings.

I have performed for organizations including Malabar Gold & Diamonds, community and cultural festivals throughout Southern California, and high-profile private events. I also offer custom wedding experiences, including my signature Musical Pheras, which combine live music, traditional chants, and storytelling to create a memorable and inclusive ceremony experience.

Available as a solo artist, with accompanists, or with a full ensemble, I delivers performances that are elegant, engaging, and unforgettable—bringing people together.

Nusrat fateh Ali Khan, Iqbal Bano, AR Rehman, Ali Sethi and Farida Khanum are artists that have greatly influenced me. Duma dum Mast Kalander is the greatest song of all time for me.

"A voice that speaks to the soul
So thankful for Neha, from the moment she sang, the room was silent—not just listening, but feeling. The entire energy of the party changed. She brought us all together in a super fun way - her voice was raw, pure, and full of emotion, as if she was sharing a piece of her soul with every note. She wasn’t just performing; she was creating a moment we’ll never forget. The true highlight of the night. LOVED!!!"
