Samudra is a LIVE band based out of the IT capital of India, Bangalore. The band was formed almost by coincidence just before its first show in the college jam room The members grew accustomed to each other after a jam session where the music almost magically gelled together. After that, it was a series of continuous jam sessions The name, Samudra, was suggested by the violinist, Adarsha, as it suited the genre of the band, Indo-western rock. Since it is a blend of both western and Indian classical instruments, the band describes it as a sea of music; hence Samudra was an apt title. Since the formation, Samudra has taken part and won various competitions like Ramaiah Medical College, New Horizon Engineering College, Bangalore Medical College, etc. The band has also performed for a corporate show at Infosys and another show at Phoenix mall Bangalore.
