Bio

May 2010... Crimson Rain was formed by good friends Pras K and Avi Pranish as an alternative band with the concept of not being genre specific. The songs are written with feel and groove with strong emphasis also placed on lyrical honesty and instrument melody.

Crimson Rain has been well received not only in New Zealand but also in Australia, Malaysia, Fiji and India. The band toured of Malaysia in July 2012.

Press:

"A tantalisingly short, albeit wickedly sweet, album; laden with choppy bassy rhythmic bits and precise gax, all nicely mixed with some diverse vox. "
— CEOMONG, muzic.net.nz

"Crimson Rain, an Auckland based four-man band, established just five months ago (May 2010) and if its early achievements are any indication, it will flow into many parts of the world, immersing enthusiasts and fans in melody and rhythm."
— Venkat Raman, Indian Newslink

"Crimson Rain is one of the most outstanding rock bands I've come across in 2010, and are definitely worth the listen - especially if you like such bands as Agent and Shihad. "
— SHADE, muzic.net.nz

"Coming from diverse musical backgrounds, the sound is a funky blend of metal, rock, grunge, with a hint of classical and Flamenco thrown in to the mix. Their sound wasn’t as heavy as I’d been led to believe, but there is a metal attitude running through it (similar to Agent, but not quite as funk driven nor metally)."
— Alistar Wickens, NZ Musician

Pras K (vocals, guitar)
