Chai
“Chai Varier is a saxophonist and music producer based in San Francisco. His sound is influenced by jazz, funk, pop, neo-soul, R&B, and Indian Carnatic music. Deeply inspired by the spiritual approach of John Coltrane, his music aims to reflect a universal spirituality – one that transcends genres and cultures, speaking to the heart and soul.
His debut release with Axian, Across The Ocean, introduced his expressive saxophone voice to a wider audience, while his collaboration with Kundi on Do You Remember showcased his ability to blend rich improvisation into modern production. He has performed with Bay Area names such as Super Greens, Justin Ward, Mistah Luhtakizz, and Space Goat.
Whether on stage or in the studio, Chai aims to channel raw emotion and depth, crafting melodies that move listeners and stir the soul. With each project, he continues to push his sound forward, inviting listeners on a journey of groove, feeling, and spiritual connection.”
