Kapil released the follow up to his acclaimed debut - a concept album about the oppression of the Indian caste system featured in Pitchfork, VICE, Rolling Stone India, The Guardian, The New Indian Express, The Quietus, BBC Asian Network - on November 18, 2022.

Singles released from his LP “Laal” have featured at Rolling Stone India, Bandcamp, The Quietus, The Hindu, BBC Radio6 Music and BBC Asian Network. The LP is a concept album about the influence of Bollywood and Indian cinema - platforming conversations around censorship, nationalism and caste which aren’t discussed often in mainstream media circles.

Kapil has showcased songs from the new album with his live band across SXSW, Canadian Music Week, UEFA EURO 2020, ILMC, Unconvention Manchester, WOMEX and innovative South Asian festival Dialled in. An online performance caught the attention of internationally renown live agent Steve Zapp who would sign him to his roster with the prestigious International Talent Booking Agency.

Kapil has amassed a number of high profile collaborations and commissions including a rework of a Ravi Shankar composition to commemorate his 100th birthday for BBC Asian Network, a collaborative single with Rap legend LIL B.
