Satya Graha
Graha is composed of seasoned singer-songwriting team B.B. Mayes and David Vella (also lead vocalist) with vocalist Anna Bensch. These aren’t teenagers bemoaning their existence. Nor are they fashionably negative, belligerent or morose. This is situational music with a wry sense of humour. The band’s key message is one of perseverance. It’s about that invisible something that spurs you on when the easy way out is so appealing. Then again, the band’s name means ‘soul force.’ Taking the name from a belief of Gandhi, who believed a satya graha would grow and become more courageous the more a person is crushed.
