With her inimitable style and insane flow, Soom T has been travelling the world for over 20 years. After over 160 concerts with her band the Stone Monks, this year she decides to take a U-turn to her Glasgow roots with a 100% sound system tour.
With the “Free The Hard Way” EP released last June in collaboration with Krak in Dub, the raggamuffin queen gives us a taste of what to expect in 2026!
SOOM T is a Scottish singer of Indian origin. After having campaigned alongside Y Network, a group of young representatives of Glasgow ghettos aiming to change their city, SOOM T decides to devote her life to music to denounce injustices and talk about her daily struggles through militant and impactful lyrics.
She was first member of a hip-hop group, released a few bhangra songs (Indian popular music) then discovered sound systems and reggae culture thanks to different crews and producers including Bus, The Orb and Mungo's Hi-Fi.
She is quickly spotted by the public, in particular thanks to her generous music and her incisive and inimitable flow. SOOM T handles words with incredible ease and has always preached sincerity in her lyrics. She then becomes an essential artist of the underground reggae scene, known as the "The Raggamuffin Queen".
After fifteen years of activity and nearly a hundred tracks to her credit, she released her landmark album "Free as a Bird" in 2015 on Wagram Music, which shows the full extent of her talent and musical spectrum. "Ode to A Karrot" (Khanti Records) in 2016, "Born Again" (Strong Foundation) in 2018, "The Arch" (X-Ray Production) in 2020 and “Good” in 2022.
In 2023, SOOM T returned with 'The Louder The Better', her new studio album. It's an album of dub, pop, gospel and hip-hop influences in which, as usual, she denounces the political and social problems of our time.
For 20 years, SOOM T has been performing shows on the biggest stages in Europe (Dour, Solidays, Déferlantes, Paléo, Vieilles Charrues ...). In 2025, she's back on the road with a 100% sound system Tour!
Always a hardworker, she goes back to the studio between her shows to create a new album on it’s way for a release by autumn 2025.
