Richmond-based rock ‘n’ roll outfit Prabir Trio infuses its tunes with sounds from India in an East-meets-West mashup of musical stylings. Fronted by Prabir Mehta (guitar/vocals), with Kelli Strawbridge (drums), Jeremy Flax (bass), and Kenneka Cook (harmony vocals) rounding out the roster, Prabir Trio releases its second studio
album Long After the Empire this week. Recorded at Mountainside Studio in Charlottesville, the record carries influences from chants and prayers, Indian raga, and Southern gospel, all interwoven with driving rock.
