ABOUT
Path breakers of Indian (Hindi) Rock, BBC-Introducing band Punkh was formed in Germany in 2003 under the name Guru.

Founded by Deepak Nair (Dean), the band is presently based out of New Delhi, India.

Unlike the initial lineup, which toured through Europe, Singapore, and India and was behind the self-titled debut with EMI Virgin Music in 2007, Punkh now comprises some of the best Rock-Metal musicians from the Delhi rock circuit.

The overall sound is polished without sacrificing the primal edge that forms the cornerstone of all rock 'n' roll, setting the tone for the band's new musical statement - Karmah (EP).

The songs from Karmah were recorded and produced in Germany by the reputed nu-metal producer Marcus Tescke.

In the recent past, Punkh has been featured on an international compilation album released by EMI Music, France: Voyage au coeur de l'Inde [Songs from the heart of India] and the Compilation Album India Rocks Vol -1 by Virgin Music, India.

Punkh has headlined international festivals like The Kala Utsavam (Singapore), Winter LOTT Festival (Germany), Rockbuster Das Ding (Germany), and national campus festivals like IIT Delhi, IMT Nagpur, Amity University, and IIT Ropar in the recent past.

Lead vocalist Deepak Nair undertook frontman duties for the popular Indian band - Bandish (2009-2011) and was featured alongside popular singer KK and master percussionist Pete Lockett on the band's 2nd album with Universal Music, India.

Punkh is:

Deepak Nair (Dean) – Vocals & Guitars

Roshan Roy – Bass

Mridul Luthra – Guitars

Pankaj Bhuttan – Drums & Percussions
