Shpongle

Formed in 1996 after witnessing a solar eclipse in India, Simon Posford and Raja Ram came together as the psychedelic duo Shpongle to translate the experience into sonic form. Their debut track, "...And The Day Turned To Night," set the tone for their ambient/electronica sound and led to the release of their first album, "Are You Shpongled?" in 1999. Over the years, Shpongle continued to evolve their sound, incorporating Spanish and East Asian instrumentation in "Tales of the Inexpressible" and exploring world music themes in "Ineffable Mysteries" and "Museum of Consciousness." Their sixth album, "Codex VI," was released in 2017, and they played two sold-out shows at Red Rocks, Colorado in 2019 with plans for a seventh studio album in 2026.

Combining elements of ambient, electronica, and world music, Shpongle's music is a unique blend of sounds and influences that have captivated fans since their formation. With a discography that spans over two decades, the duo has consistently pushed boundaries and experimented with different musical styles, creating a rich tapestry of ethereal and transcendent compositions. From their early beginnings to their recent performances at iconic venues like Red Rocks, Shpongle continues to enchant audiences with their immersive live shows and expansive discography, cementing their status as pioneers in the psychedelic music scene.
