Mrigya is an Indian World fusion music band from New Delhi that was formed in 1999. Its music is a fusion of Blues, Folk, Funk, Latin, Rock and Jazz along with Indian classical music. Over the years the band has played at national and international music festivals. The band was initially formed as a jam band project for a music club called "Friends of Music" and was originally christened "Mrigaya" (Sanskrit for "hunt") by Indraneel Hariharan. A misprint in the promotion flier named the newly formed outfit as "Mrigya". The band decided to retain this new name born out of that amusing incident The founding members consisted of Rajat Kakkar on percussions (and, later, on drums), Sharat Chandra Srivastava on Hindustani violin, Indraneel Hariharan on electric bass, Sonam Sherpa on electric guitar, Gyan Singh on tabla and Indian percussion, and Ashwani Verma on drums.
