  5. MoonArra - profile • Jagadeesh M.R – Guitars and Oud. Honed over three decades Jagadeesh’s styles range from mellow classical to jazz and rock influenced sounds as he switches from playing the nylon acoustic guitar to steel electric or world sounds with the Oud. Jagadeesh also ‘scats’ to add to the vocal dynamics of the group. • Madhuri – With her deep tonal vocal quality Madhuri seamlessly moves between genres but focusing on jazz, Indian classical and world feel varying with each composition, be it vocal or instrumental. • Prakash Sontakke – Easily the most recognisable face of slide guitar in India today and internationally, Prakash Sontakke brings a rich classical Hindustaani tradition with his evocative slide guitar playing and vocals – and playing western genres with effortless ease. His increasing forays into Bollywood and other film music brings in the nuances of popular culture. • Karthik Mani – Playing a wide variety of percussion from the Ghatam, khanjira, drums, the Peruvian ‘Cajon” and with his fiery ‘Konnakol” (art of vocal rhythm) Karthik leaves audiences gasping for more as he interacts and coaxes them into joining him in an impromptu Konnakol ‘game’ or musical math! • Wilson Kenneth – Playing the electric bass guitar, Kenny as he’s known holds a solid groove and engineers the audio on stage and constantly works with alternative bands in studio and on stage
