INFO
Holiwater Band are pleased to announce the worldwide release of their new album “MAYA” to coincide with their appearance at Splore festival in Februay 2014.

Having met in 2001 during the filming of a documentary which focused attention on the critical plight of river systems and other aspects of water conservation, Vikash Maharaj, Tom Bailey, James Pinker and Prabash Maharaj recorded their first album in studios in New Zealand and England. Several performances in New Zealand and a concert tour of India followed.

The band members come with broad experience of performance and production in varied musical styles. As an “east meets west” project, the flavours of fusion are prominent, but the compositions are firmly based in the North Indian classical and folk traditions, mixed with cinematically inspired electronica and global rhythms.

The latest album stresses not only the differences between various musical cultures, but also finds unexpected confluences where traditional instruments from around the world meet the ambient grooves of global electronica.

Wake evokes an ancient Celtic procession of the dead which has its counterpart in present day Varanasi in the lines of mourners carrying the bodies of their departed through the streets towards the ever-burning pyres of Manikarnika Ghat. .
