Ric Veda's short bio

News


"Ric Veda... is a duo from Los Angeles, composed of harmonium player/multi-instrumentalist, Ric Veda, and percussionist, j.stare. The overall feel can be compared to Donovan meets Jane’s Addiction with a bit of Psychedelic Furs retro-punkiness thrown in for good measure. Folky and fresh, this is the music that young people are making right at this moment. Ric Veda played with LA’s Temple Bhajan Band, learning the ropes of Sanskrit and Vedic chant, plus the boon of devotion. There’s no chant, only songs of a seeker. The lyrics reflect the art of living in this world while asking the age-old question: Who am I really? A diamond in the rough? Maybe, but well worth a listen."
-Yoga Chicago

here below are random quotes about the music:

"I really like the lof-fi harmonium stuff....bizarre and beautiful....like Sigur Ros w/ a folk twist."

"you're a neutral milk hotel,bob dylan,and fela kuti burrito.but its all you inside.very original.its absolutely ear drum numbing."

"The Doors man, the Doors."

"you've created your own genre of music here! ... Cold Play [sic] fresh back from India. Wow! I can feel the spiritual essence of it ... Ric Veda is hypnotic... "

"...it's like Native American John Foxx"

"It sounds like what would happen if Sigur Ros and Devendra Banhart were devotees and recorded all lo-fi in India w/ modest gear. I love it. It's peaceful and minimally epic.
