By reviving the swirling, guitar-heavy sounds of late-'60s psychedelia and infusing them with George Harrison's Indian mysticism and spirituality, Kula Shaker became one of the most popular British bands of the post-Brit-pop era. More musically adept and experimental than many of their contemporaries, Kula Shaker brought the overpowering rush of Oasis to psychedelia. Buoyed by the single "Tattva," their 1996 debut, K, rocketed to the top of the British charts. They again hit the Top Ten with 1999's Peasants, Pigs & Astronauts before parting ways. Reuniting in 2006, Kula Shaker returned to the U.K. charts with 2007's Strangefolk and 2010's Pilgrims Progress, albums that reintroduced their vibrant brand of psychedelic rock. In 2016, they marked their 15 anniversary with K 2.0, cracking the Top 40 of the U.K. Albums chart. An ambitious double-LP, First Congregational Church of Eternal Love and Free Hugs, arrived in 2022, followed by 2024's Natural Magick.
