Karnataka
Originating from Wales, Karnataka have won plaudits from BBC Radio 2’s Bob Harris, prog icon Rick Wakeman and many others. The band’s storming live performances have entranced and captivated audiences across the UK, Europe and the USA and seen them perform alongside prestigious artists such as Robert Plant and Porcupine Tree.
Creating music that shifts effortlessly from powerful to ethereal, breath-taking to haunting, and produced at some of the world’s top studios including Real World, Rockfield and Abbey Road, Karnataka’s music combines a widescreen cinematic vision with soaring melodies, lush harmonies and epic symphonic, progressive soundscapes, whilst also drawing on their Celtic roots.
In 2023 the band released their critically acclaimed new album Requiem For A Dream supported by a nationwide UK tour which included sell-out headline performances at the Summer’s End and HRH Prog festivals. In 2024 the band embark on a UK/European tour.
