Agam are a Bengaluru band that set Carnatic melodies inside progressive rock, with Harish Sivaramakrishnan on vocals. Their catalogue on Apple Music India is one album from 2012, a long run of singles, and the 2025 album Arrival of the Ethereal. This guide picks the twenty best Agam songs in release order, with the date Apple Music India gives each song.

How we checked. Every date below is the song's own date on Apple Music India (iTunes catalogue, country IN), checked on 28 October 2026. Where a single was later added to an album, we give the song's date, which Apple keeps the same on both. Apple's Agam page also mixes in releases by other artists with the same name, so we list only songs we could tie to the Bengaluru band (see "What is left out"). Only released music is covered. For the band, lineup and albums, see Agam. This page is about songs.
