Karnataka Information

Karnataka are a five-piece song-based progressive rock group from Swansea, Wales (UK) that incorporate eastern and Celtic influences into their sound. Their UK live performances and website have attracted both media and music enthusiast attention from Australia to America. Live performances include one at the Classic Rock Society's HLC Rotherham gig and numerous opening slots for Jump. Karnataka's second album is entitled The Storm, a title well suited to the expected positive reaction of their growing global audience. The Storm (Immrama Records (UK) KTKCD002, 2000) is available from the band's website and from progressive music retailers in the United Kingdom. Their stunning debut self-titled album was released in September 1998; a collection of eight song-based progressive rock tracks with powerful vocals, symphonic orchestrals and worldly instrumental influences, Karnataka (Karnataka (UK) KTKCD001, 1998) remains available directly from the band's website. The new ten-track album builds upon the sound of the debut with improved technical production quality, most evident in the vocal mix.
