MUMBAI – Rising electronic superstar TSHA returns with a sultry new single “Somebody”, her first music since the release of her widely acclaimed debut album ‘Capricorn Sun’. The track sees TSHA continue to demonstrate the emotive blend of underground electronic and hook-laden pop sensibilities that have led to her being one of the most talked about new artists in recent years.
On “Somebody” she pairs her own formidable production skills with two giants in their respective fields; with platinum-selling, bonafide UK pop-royalty Ellie Goulding deploying her flawless vocals and yearning lyrics throughout, and GRAMMY-winning soul singer Gregory Porter putting his unmistakable stamp on the chorus.

Speaking about the collaboration, TSHA says: “The idea for this collaboration was sparked by Ellie sliding into my DM’s last year to reach out about a session. I of course jumped at the opportunity in a heartbeat – she’s someone that I’ve admired and respected for a long time, so to have the opportunity to work together was a complete no brainer for me. It’s been an absolute pleasure working together on ‘Somebody’, Ellie’s a real sweetheart and I’m so pleased with how the track has come together. The icing on the cake is the vocals that Gregory Porter has added, which for me really elevate the track and add another dimension to the music. Having a living legend like Gregory featuring on my music is a huge milestone moment for me.”
