My Compelling Story

Wingardiom Leviosa is a three-piece Indie band from Bangalore, Karnataka. The band was formed in July 2016. The three members met in Hubli, a small town in Karnataka, where most musicians knew each other. Emerging from different musical backgrounds, each had their own interests, aspirations and academics to deal with. Having performed together in and around Hubli, Belgaum, Bangalore, and across projects for over four years with different artists, the three decided to get together and create some music, which would be a unique concinnity of their varied styles and influences. Their sound is an amalgamation of Jake’s Indie-grunge roots layered and syncopated with Chintu’s classic-modern drumming style, and TSMP’s creative blend of Hindustani and post-modernistic vocal melodies and harmonies. Clubbed with MIDI samples and effects, the band creates an experimental aura in the house. They aim at creating music for the soul, reflecting upon the oblivious, yet strong events of daily life. The Paper Kites, Aurora, The Districts, Opeth, Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, Chet Faker, Radiohead, Porcupine Tree, Rabbi Shergill, Kailash Kher, Gino Banks, Steve Smith, Billy Cobham, Martin Lopez, and Arunkumar are the major influences for the band.
