BIOGRAPHY

MOKSHA is a psychedelic indie band originally from Luxembourg, now located in Bath UK. Loaded with energetic guitars, powerful male vocals and mesmerizing synths, MOKSHA produces sounds that have been compared to the early Doors and Tame Impala. The band has shown some great promise with their original and fresh sound in the south west of England, as well as in their home town Luxembourg.

Having played shows in the UK and Luxembourg, the band has been working on their live presence and started to create a buzz in the local music scene. A series of gigs in Luxembourg during summer 2014 ended with a solid performance at Food For Your Senses Festival. The debut EP produced by Jan Kerscher at Ghost City Recordings, will be full of energy and mist, following the footsteps of single “TALK”.

MOKSHA will be on tour in the UK for 8 dates during October/November 2014 and will release their first EP during winter 2014.

WHAT THE PRESS SAYS ”raw-edged vocals on a psych plateau that just edge over into ’rock’ territory” – Little Indie Blogs 2013 "Probably the most flawless psychedelic indie recently heard in Luxembourg. It has got simply everything: the charming vintage touch, the academic knowledge of daddy’s vinyl collection, the immersive guitar work, and above all, the incredibly sexy male vocals. Somewhere between the best of Tame Impala and the Doors’ more anarchic songs!" - Food For Your Senses Festival 2014  "Inspiriert durch Bands wie Foals und Tame Impala, katapultieren sie uns ins psychedelische Jenseits. Trotz des großen Einflusses moderner Indie-Bands sind die wilden 60′er irgendwie doch stets allgegenwärtig. Vor allem der neue Song “Moment’s Over” lässt die Legende um Jim Morrison wieder aufleben und schafft so eine Parallelwelt zwischen Vergangenheit und Zukunft." - The Postie 2014
