Abhi the Nomad, Khary, Harrison Sands

Nearly 10 years after the rapper first emerged on the scene, Abhi the Nomad is taking his final bow. His show at the Parish will be his last in Austin before taking an indefinite hiatus from music. At 31, Abhi Sridharan Vaidehi – the man behind the sobriquet – is exiting a music industry he believes has been rocked by streaming services and TikTok attention spans. Vaidehi has made vital contributions to a blossoming Austin hip-hop scene. Catch the Nomad who found a home here before he heads out on tour one last time. – Abby Johnston
