“Natural Magick”

Formed in the mid ’90s in London, Kula Shaker emerged as one of the most dynamic and engaging musical acts around.
Mixing psychedelia with traditional Indian music and pop, Kula Shaker tore it up right out of the gate, with their debut album K hitting #1 and making them immediate superstars. Over the course of their career they played Glastonbury, T in the Park, the V Festival, and they supported Oasis at their legendary Knebworth shows. Singer Crispian Mills is the grandson of the Academy Award Winning actor Sir John Mills and the son of director Roy Boulting and actress Hayley Mills, who you might remember from the 1961 film The Parent Trap. Mills got into ancient Sanskrit texts as a young man and carried their wisdom into his adulthood. He also got into psych music as well as The Doors. He’s played with X-Ray Spex and appeared on the Prodigy’s The Fat Of The Land album and when Kula Shaker were on hiatus, he played in a band called The Jeevas. Also, he’s a writer and director; he wrote and helmed the Simon Pegg film A Fantastic Fear Of Everything and has other projects in the works. With Kula Shaker he’s put out six marvelous albums, including K, Pilgrim’s Progress, 1st Congregational Church of Eternal Love and Hugs and their brand new one, Natural Magick. A riveting return to form, Natural Magick finds the original Kula Shaker lineup reunited and the results are stunning–this album is an energetic blast of psych pop redolent with rich hooks, textured instrumentation and melodies galore. It’s fabulous work.
