"Dawn of Something Big"

About Me



We are a band of brothers with a passion for music.
Mayavirupa is the only word that means to become something out of nothing.
Review by Neil Shumate of Out of the Blue Publications
Band: Mayavirupa
Genre: Rock
Track Picks: Bitch, Big Bad Wolf, Is That Alright, Under Achiever
Lowdown: Stripped down rock-and-roll at its finest with catchy guitar riffs that dim to add a punch of unique vocal variety, grunge-style. Stop-time techniques leave breaks of suspense for listeners to groove in anticipation of the flawless drum and bass accompaniments. Interludes of heavy bass plucking seem reminiscent of Primus. The powerful original lyrics give justice to the melodic textures and layering with acoustic tendencies that make for a harmonious trance, climbing to a full fledged onslaught of back to basics bar room rock. Take time to check out this touring Central Ohio band, pick up their full length album—this three piece band can take Clutch on any day.
