History

The band was initially formed as a jam band project for a music club called "Friends of Music" and was originally christened "Mrigaya" by Indraneel Hariharan. A misprint in the promotion flyer named the newly formed outfit as "Mrigya". The band decided to retain this new name born out of that amusing incident.
