Mantra Stage Time: 7:20pm to 8:00pm
MANTRA ARE - Groovy, riff-laden, beer-swilling, pot-smoking, foot-stomping music that will make you nod your head and say "Hell yeah! That's some badass shit!"
Mantra formed in 2003 and since then have notched up some impressive performances including tour supports with Orange Goblin and My Ruin and an appearance at Bloodstock in 2008. They have been featured in Classic Rock, Total Guitar, Zero Tolerance and Powerplay magazines and have been played on the legendary Bruce Dickinson Rock Show. Mantra continue to turn heads in the rock scene with their memorable brand of Groove-Driven Riffage.
Their first full-length studio album "Blackened Cross" is a real tour de force for the genre, produced by Dave Chang at Philia Studios. The band received great reviews and feedback for this album. Mantra are now in the process of recording their second album "Over the Edge".
