Artist Info: The Ragas

The Ragas consists of the duo of Henry McGuinn (son of the Byrds founder Roger McGuinn) and Jim Guittard. The name Ragas is in tribute to sitar royalty Ravi Shankar and the style of music that the Beatles played for example in Norwegian Wood using the sitar.

In 2000, the duo ventured out among the Silverlake scene playing clubs on the Sunset Strip and along the southern California coast. Currently they are working on new projects.
