After Karnataka disbanding in 2004, Ian met up with keyboard player Gonzalo Carrera,the following year - a superb musician whose musical credits include working with John Helliwell (Supertramp), John Etheridge (Soft Machine) and Hugh McDowell (ELO). They began writing and very quickly struck up a strong musical partnership - the sound was unmistakeably Karnataka and the decision was taken to relaunch the band.

The line up continued to expand and evolve arriving at the current line up of Ian Jones, Lisa Fury (vocals), Gonzalo Carrera (keyboards), Enrico Pinna (guitars) and Ian Harris (Drums). The band toured in 2007 and 2008 before heading into the studio to record the new studio album The Gathering Light - a beautiful, ambitious work that promises to take Karnataka's sound to new heights.

The story continues........

" From powerful to ethereal, breathtaking to haunting, Karnataka’s music draws upon many influences from melodic,classic & progressive rock to celtic cinematic soundscapes.They take the listener on a never to be forgotten musical journey."
"...The Gathering Light stands true to Karnataka's heritage, yet illustrates significant artistic growth since the former lineup's Delicate Flame of Desire release six years ago. Progressive rock influences are more apparent..."

"...Enrico Pinna's electric guitar passages and solos are awe-inspiring..."

"...tremendously moving vocals from Lisa Fury..."
