About Me

Khayra perustettiin vuoden 2005 lopussa tarjoilemaan karkkia korville. Luomusoittimiin ja moniäänisiin lauluihin luottava yhtye nojaa perinteeseen, mutta katsoo eteenpäin. Akustinen sointi on luonnollisella tavalla karu ja pelkistetyn kaunis. Khayra ammentaa folkista, rockista ja kansanmusiikista, mutta maustaa soppansa itse. Onko tämä sitten folkia? Poppia? Ööh, bluegrassia? Vai ihan vaan hyvää ja kaunista musiikkia.

Khayra was formed in the end of the year 2005 to play folk music with a taste of something new. Oh man, wouldn't it be pretty hard to sound totally original with these very, very traditional instruments...
