The Chakras are a psychedelic rock sestet from Dublin, Ireland. They formed in 2004 but only recently came to prominence with the release of their 2007 Build Me A Swan EP, produced in part by Marc Carolan (Muse, The Cure) and Ciaran Bradshaw (The Rags, The Butterfly Explosion, Evil Harrisons).

The band have been playlisted and played on all Irish national radio stations (2FM,Phantom, 98FM , 104FM, Spin 103.8 and Newstalk) and on television (MTV, RTÉ Two, TG4 and City Channel) and the title track, Build Me A Swan, was used in the UEFA cup coverage on TV3. The aforementioned EP was released to almost universal acclaim in the Irish press (Hot Press, Connected, In Dublin and Evening Echo. They were selected as the MySpace "Featured Artist of the Week" on two consecutive occasions in both the UK and Ireland. The Chakras have been attracting industry attention at home and abroad and this has been largely attributed to their distinct sound. They have recently been asked to play in the first soccer world cup for artists and musicians in Sochi, Russia and will be playing against the likes of veteran star players Roger Milla (Cameroon) and Zico (Brazil).
