Mahal is a very fascinating EP, as is the band Glass Beams. There is not a whole lot known about the band, such as who are the three members, but they do make a great sound with influences as far reaching as Ravi Shankar to Bollywood to Electric Light Orchestra to traditional blues. They take all these influences, melt them together and come up with a very unique and intriguing sound. The trio of mask wearing musicians, however, let their music speak for themselves.
Interestingly, the Melbourne-based band is built around founding member Ranjan Silva, who credits watching The Concert For George DVD on repeat with his father for allowing him to hear all the different sounds and music. The concert, which features standard Western rock artists, as well as performances from Ravi Shankar’s daughter, Anoushka Shankar, can be heard as the basis for Glass Beams music. In many ways, Glass Beams is the sound, one would think, Harrison himself wanted to hear when he introduced classical Indian music into Western pop music via The Beatles and his own solo career.
