Aditya Jassi

Aditya Jassi (born 21 March 1982, New Delhi, India) is an Indian singer-songwriter, composer, record producer and musician. He has signed for a multi-album deal with Universal Music.

Aditya Jassi was born in New Delhi, India, son of documentary film-maker and author Jaswin Jassi and Kiran Jassi. He initially studied in Air Force Bal Bharati School, Lodhi Road in Delhi, and later went to a boarding school in Dehradun- Welham Boys' School. It was here that he was introduced to and fell in love with music and theatre. In college, however, theatre took a back seat to music and sports.

As an English graduate from Delhi University, music was still not a professional choice for Jassi, so he pursued civil aviation. As a private pilot license holder from the Delhi Flying Club, he worked several jobs from freelance print journalist to copywriter before completing his post-graduate studies in Mass Communication before joining Sahara News Channel as a reporter, producer, and anchor. However, music was all he wanted to do. In 2006, he quit his job at Sahara to pursue music professionally.

FAME-X

In 2006, at the behest of his friend Dr. Palash Sen (Euphoria), Jassi auditioned for FAME-X, and made it to the top ten of this reality show contest aired on Sony and SAB TV.

After FAME-X, Aditya ventured into Bollywood, debuting with the song "Yaad Aaye Who Din" for the Jimmy Shergill-KK Menon starrer Strangers, released in 2007. He launched his band Ni9Ne with music producer and guitar player Sachin Gupta.

7 came through after years of struggle and hardships. It started with record labels not wanting to invest in non-film music, as the industry seemed to have forgotten about independent artists.

The album was co-produced by Vinayak Gupta and mixed by Vijay Dayal at Yash Raj Studios.
