MUKT DEBUT ALBUM LAUNCH

Mukt, a progressive rock fusion band, aims to launch their debut album that features eight literature pieces of legendary poets who, though eras and continents apart, find unity in the timelessness of their work or in Mukt’s passionate music.

The Band

Mukt was formed in 2013, when four high school friends came together for their love of music and determination to go the extra mile to perform as a band. After going through the initial phases of evolution and achieving individual prowess as musicians, they reached its present avatar of a five-piece band. However, their identity crystallized into its unique form with them choosing to create original music, albeit only to bring some of the awe-inspiring literary gems to mainstream. Their inherent love for freedom inspires them to free these palmary masters of words from the shackles of time – to give them Mukt-i.

The Album

The debut album is eclectic not just in its diversity in the region of origin & language but also in its literary genre ranging from philosophy to dark sarcasm, patriotism to rebellious, and fierce to romantic. The one thing that binds them together and to Mukt’s soul is the deep empathic compassion which cuts through every being it touches. The poets demand to be heard now! And Mukt is ready to bring them to every one of you!
