Letters is a five piece Instrumental Progressive Metal band that originated in the studio from the mind of guitarist and Producer/Engineer Tejas Narayan. The bands sound is influenced by bands like Periphery, Tesseract, Textures, Haunted Shores and also by traces of electronic music. Letters has recently two singles so far, Microchip Cookie and Toad. They plan to release an album early 2019.
Initially, the project began with Tejas Narayan who had been writing material since 2011. He was then joined by fellow guitarists Asxem Dlean and Shannon George who began collaborating on a few of the tracks like ‘Gentlemen’ and ‘Imagine Salt’ and adding their ideas to the music. The line-up was completed with Bassist Adil Kurwa (The Koniac Net/Last Remaining Light) and drummer Aritra Basu (Yonsample).

Celestial Teapot is a five-piece instrumental rock act from Pune, India. We released our debut album in December 2015 called 'One Big Sky' wherein we had the pleasure of collaborating with Marjana Semkina, vocalist of Russian Prog/Chamber duo 'Iamthemorning' on one of our songs called 'Nacreous'. One Big Sky has received acclaim not only from the locals but a great deal from the overseas audience as well.
CT has been fortunate to have earned a spot and to have shared the stage with some stellar Indian and International acts such as Megadeth, The Wailers, Indus Creed, Skrat etc. at the 6th edition of Harley Rock Riders at Richardson Cruddas in Mumbai. To promote the album, we had an opportunity to tour with Delhi-based Post-Rock band Ioish, in Feb 2016. The tour comprised of five cities, namely: Pune, Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai & Nashik and received tremendous support from crowds all over. CT also had a chance to play with Prog giants Coshish and Rainburn, supporting them at the Pune leg of 'Progworks on Wheels'.
