A classically trained musician, India has long been a core member of childhood friend Ben Howard’s band, singing and playing cello,electric bass and percussion, together having toured the world several times over. As well as performing, songwriting has always been close to her heart. She started young, recording her first e.p age 16 (I'm Here), a second in 2011 (These Days Of Ours) and a debut solo record (The Garden) 2021 in collaboration with London based producer and DJ Jakwob under the name Tender Central. In this record she lends her delicate ear for musical arrangement to the realm of electronica and folk, resulting in productions that evoke the sounds of her ethereal electronic forebearers Massive Attack, Lamb and Zero 7, and the unmistakable vocal similarities to legends such as Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell.
