Swati (born Swati Sharma in 1973) is an American singer-songwriter. She developed a following in the music and arts scene in Manhattan's lower east side, and has since performed at Lilith Fair. Her primary instrument is a twelve string guitar fitted with eight strings.
Notoriously self-critical of her own work,[1] her recorded output has been minimal, with one album, Small Gods, released in 2007 on the Bluhammock label (originally released independently in 2006 as Swati), and one live EP exclusive to iTunes [2] The album includes a cover version of Bruce Springsteen's I'm on Fire.
