Skyterra
Skyterra is a piano-based, futuristic rock/alternative, electronic band, created by musicians, Chetan Sky, Melissa Evans, and Jon Stone. Two of the members (Chetan and Melissa) are accomplished classical concert pianists and they all share a love for current and forward-thinking music. Their sound contains atmospheric synths and bass intertwined with acoustic piano, electronic and acoustic drums, and both male and female singers. Some of the influences include Radiohead, FKA Twigs, Chopin, Muse, Massive Attack, and Nirvana. Skyterra's mission is to spread awareness, self-acceptance, and oneness through the power of music while challenging and influencing the notion that high art can excel in a popular medium. Their lyrics draw from today’s current events and culture and are influenced by social awareness, connectivity, and activism while including subjects of love and coming of age. Nearly all of the music comes from current autobiographical themes. While the group aims to spin things in a positive, hopeful manner, they also enjoy exploring the dark side.
