- Crispian Mills/ Krishna Kantha Dasa (born 18 January 1973 as Crispian John David Boulting; also known as 'Dodge') is an English singer, songwriter, and guitarist. He is the son of actress Hayley Mills and director Roy Boulting, the grandson of John Mills and Mary Hayley Bell (Lady Mills), nephew of Juliet Mills and Jonathan Mills, and half-brother to Jason "Ace" Lawson. He has been married to the model Josephine Mills (née Branfoot) since 1995. They currently reside in Bath with their son, Keshava. Active since 1988, Mills is best known as the frontman of the psychedelic indie rock band Kula Shaker. Following the band's breakup in 1999, he remained with Columbia Records (a subsidiary of Sony BMG), and toured with a set of session musicians (including a support slot for Robbie Williams) under the name Pi, although no official studio recordings were released in full. After the label rejected the Pi album, Mills disappeared for a short time, returning in 2002 as frontman and lead guitarist of back-to-basics rock outfit The Jeevas, who disbanded in 2005 to make way for a reformed Kula Shaker, who released their third album Strangefolk in 2007. Mills' vocal style reflects his influences, demonstrating the soft, melodic qualities of 1960s pop, a more scratchy, textured folk leaning in the style of Bob Dylan, held together by a heavier, late-1970s rock-esque howling delivery. His lyrics are similarly varied, and demonstrate themes such as love, wisdom, and mysticism alongside political commentary, social observations and popular culture. As a guitarist, Mills is self-taught, and has observed that his "style is all about [his] right hand," as seen through his penchant for the slide guitar technique. He is also a frequent user of the wah-wah pedal and is also known to play the harmonica and the sarod. As the frontman of Kula Shaker, Mills received a great deal of media attention – as much for his outspoken nature as his music. After the demise of Kula Shaker, this attention ceased, although he still commands a great deal of notice in Japan.
- Crispian Mills ist ein englischer Sänger und Musiker. Er war Leadsänger der Bands The Jeevas und Kula Shaker. Crispian ist Sohn der Schauspielerin Hayley Mills und des Regisseurs Roy Boulting. Er hat einen Halbbruder namens Jason. Crispian ist verheiratet mit dem Model Jo Mills (geb. Branfoot). Sein Großvater war der britische Schauspieler Sir John Mills. Crispian lebt derzeit in Bath, England. Mills wurde 1996 berühmt als Sänger und Songwriter der britischen Rockband Kula Shaker, deren erstes Album „K“ in Großbritannien das bestverkaufte seit Oasis' „Definitely Maybe“ war. Schon mit elf Jahren lernte Crispian Gitarre spielen. Mit 15 kam er auf das Richmond College, wo er den Bassisten Alonza Bevan (* 24. Oktober 1970 in London) kennen lernte. Die beiden entdeckten bald ihre gemeinsamen musikalischen Interessen und begannen zusammen zu musizieren. Sie nannten ihre Band Object of Desire, später Mantrashack. Drummer Paul Winterheart (* 19. September 1971, Glastonbury) stieß 1991 zur Band. 1993 ging Mills nach Indien und lernte einiges über indische Religion und indische Musik. Diese, so beschloss er, sollte künftig auch in seiner Musik auftauchen. In Indien heiratete Crispian auch seine Freundin Jo. Nach seiner Rückkehr engagierte die Band 1993 den Organisten Jay Darlington (* 3. Mai 1969). Sie benannte sich um: als Kula Shaker bekam sie einen Vertrag bei Columbia Records. Nachdem sich Kula Shaker aufgelöst hatten, experimentierte Mills mit neuen musikalischen Ideen. Diese endeten letztlich in der Gründung der Band The Jeevas mit Andy Nixon und Dan McKinna. Deren erstes Album war ein Erfolg in Japan, aber nicht in Großbritannien oder Europa. The Jeevas lösten sich 2005 auf. Im Januar 2006 kündigten Kula Shaker offiziell an, dass die Band sich neu formiert habe. Crispian arbeitete zwischenzeitlich an einem Filmprojekt mit Produzent Stephen Fry, das im Frühjahr 2006 verwirklicht werden sollte. Siehe auch: Kula Shaker
