Kamal Singh (born 4 February 1979) of post rock band, Lounge piranha fame was born in India to diversely ethnic parents. From the age of eleven Kamal has been in complete possession of his guitar strings and his wits. His influences range from Grunge to punk to Indian Carnatic music which manifest in his songwriting and compositions while simultaneously suggesting an attempt to remain minimalist. In addition to providing the guitar and vocals for local legends Lounge Piranha, Kamal has his very own project labeled 3 Sevens, formed in 2004, which has given rise to originals like the popular Gun Song, Hand Hole, Rotting Lillies, among others, which have kept audiences entranced and asking for more.
