About seven years ago Nadia and I decided we would like to play music together in public, so we formed a duet, called Kautilya. At that stage, we played pretty much only cover versions of artists like the Cranberries, Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Mazzy Star and the Eurythmics, to name a few. Later the band grew into, well, a real band with a lead guitarist (my guitar playing leaves much to be desired), a violinist, a drummer and a keyboard player. Then we started writing songs, recorded a CD and did a few live gigs at acoustic clubs and music evenings. Currently we are in an interesting spot - where do we go next? There is a point where amateurs have to wonder at how big a commitment they can make to a shared project or even how far their skills can extend into the realm of public performance. Where do we get out of our depth? I don't know.
