Progressive rock band Karnataka play The Live Rooms on Station Road with their Requiem For A Night Tour.
Karnataka play The Live Rooms on Sunday 8 November, part of their Requiem For A Night tour. They're a progressive rock band formed in 1996 by Ian Jones, who started by recording songs he'd written and performed in earlier bands in his home studio, then brought in musicians he'd worked with before to round out the sound. The name comes from Jones' trips to that region of India, and their debut album, Karnataka, followed.
Their style blends symphonic rock with dynamic arrangements and heartfelt lyrics, and the records they've built that sound on include The Storm, Delicate Flame of Desire, The Gathering Light, Secrets of Angels and Requiem For A Dream. The live set draws on material from those, and also from Jones' earlier projects. Critics have called them one of the most captivating live acts in progressive rock, with reviews describing the music as 'sublimely atmospheric', 'unashamedly epic' and 'dramatic and lushly textured'.
