Mumbai, 4th October 2026: Nagaland-based singer-songwriter, vocalist and voice instructor Kedo, with his band, makes his Nepali music debut with ‘Closer’, a gospel-inspired love song. Blending intimate songwriting with a message of faith, the track explores the universal search for love, peace, purpose and belonging. At its heart, however, Closer reveals itself as a deeply personal love letter to God, and a reminder that His presence was always closer than we knew.
The song moves through the emotional journey of feeling lost, finding reassurance and discovering a presence that remains constant through uncertainty. Its lyrics speak of someone who holds the parts we cannot hide, waits when we lose our way and listens even when words fall short. The recurring idea of being “closer than my dreams” and “closer than the stars above” gives the song its emotional centre, turning familiar feelings of love and longing into an expression of spiritual connection.
Watch the song here:
For Kedo, Closer is also an opportunity to bring a message of God’s love, presence and grace to a wider audience through Nepali music. The song’s gospel-inspired foundation allows its spiritual message to remain central without losing the intimacy of a contemporary love song. Rather than presenting faith through grand declarations, Kedo approaches it through the quieter moments, the feeling of being held, understood and never truly alone.
With Closer, Kedo begins his Nepali music journey with a song rooted in vulnerability, faith and belonging. The track reflects the idea that the things we spend our lives searching for may sometimes have been beside us all along. For Kedo, that discovery points towards God, a presence closer than imagined, offering love and grace even in the moments when we lose our way.
