Jatayu is a Jazz Rock quartet from the port city of Chennai, India. Using sound and music to tell stories, the band weaves together traditional Carnatic music with Jazz, Funk, Rock, and a whole host of perpetually changing styles and influences to push the boundaries of ‘fusion’.

What started as a bedroom project, has grown into a collaborative musical experiment of style and culture – balancing traditional art and modern progressiveness.

Jatayu is a reflection of modern India – rooted in a centuries old art form, yet current and collaborative in approach.
