The origin of the Alternative-Metal band Ra goes back to the mid-'90s
when frontman Sahaj Ticotin began writing songs and rehearsing constantly;
the real story, however, began in early 2002 in New York, USA, when, assuming
the role of lead singer+guitarist, Sahaj teamed-up with guitarist Ben
Carroll, bassist Sean Corcoran and drummer Skoota Warner.
The quartet began gigging on the East Coast and in October 2002 issued
their debut album, "From One", on Republic/Universal; the record
included the first single, "Do You Call My Name", plus their
first Mainstream Rock top 30 hit, "Rectifier".
Corcoran left the band during the following year, he was replaced by bass
player PJ Farley.
The group's sophomore release, "Duality", came out in May 2005
reaching #2 on the Billboard's Top Heatseekers Albums chart and the #134
slot on The Billboard 200 while the main single, " Fallen Angels",
hit #29 on the Active Rock airplay Top 40 chart.
Ra prepares to unleash "Raw", a live album featuring the new
studio single "Don't Turn Away"; the set drops October 24.
