BEHIND THE SOUND OF CHAKRA
A group of friends brought together by a shared love for music and the energy it creates.

Our Story
We began as a group of college students at James Madison University looking for an escape from the chaos of everyday life. Between classes, work, and everything in between, music became the one thing that brought us together.
What started as casual jam sessions quickly turned into something much bigger. From large fraternity and sorority events to opening for Flipturn and performing throughout the Harrisonburg community, we've had the opportunity to turn something we love into experiences we will never forget.
Through it all, one thing hasn't changed: we're still a group of friends who love making music and sharing it with the world.


We are more than a band. We are family brought together by music, friendship, and the belief that something special happens when people share the same energy.
Our vision is to take Chakra beyond the college scene, create original music, explore new sound, and bring our performances to audiences everywhere.
For us, it's simple: show up, play loud, and never stop chasing what you love.
