“Hourglass is neither defined by its shape nor confined by its size... for it measures a moment and an era alike!”
There are scores of stories about why we chose the name Hourglass Inversion:
Story I
Hourglass signifies time and hence an eternal existence. What is more eternal than music? A tribute to the eternal appeal and existence of music!
Story II
We're all working professionals spending most of our day time in front of the geeky computer screens staring at the Hourglass icon that appears whenever Windows is trying to figure out what we've asked it to do. Our tribute to our alter existence!
Story III
We are like the grains of sand in an Hourglass which are insignificant and indistinguishable individually. Much like the grains of sand, we are so often stuck in a repetitive cycle in the sand timer's confined boundaries. Yet the purpose of that existence is larger than life - We are time itself! A tribute to our self
importance!
Story IV
So many of us waste years in repetitive insignificant tasks, going round and round in circles much like an Hourglass. A tribute to the banality of this existence! So Hourglass really is an amalgamation of countless perceptions. Every story is as real as we imagine it to be!!
For 2 years the band was known simply as Hourglass. Then in 2010 our quest for individuality, search for a distinct sound and thought culminated in the first few originals. It was then that dreams were re-dreamt for ambition had found its seekers and music had found its mean. The Hourglass had inverted! ...And
Hourglass became Hourglass Inversion...

The name HOURGLASS
Yayati (Voice & Strings)
If you think rock is about energy, power and attitude, then Yayati is one vocalist you'd watch out for. And if that isn't enough to enthrall some of the hardened rockers, then he'll blow you away with his guitar skills too!
Amit (6 String)
The one with the Spiky hair. Maybe the spikes are just the creativity sprouting out or the result of dangerously high levels of energy and enthusiasm that he operates at. He is the fountainhead of ideas
and his drive keeps the band Operating at almost reckless levels of energy.
Chetan (Beat & Rythm)
Chetan was nicknamed Satan because that’s what he is behind his kit - brutal and evil! Did he buy a red drum kit or is it just angry... we do not know. What we do know is that there is no better way
to set the beat and fill the groove in our music. Hail Satan!
Hemant (5 String & Groove)
Cool as a breeze, unruffled and unpretentious - Thats a minimal introduction to Hemant. On the bass, he is slick as he weeds through complex pieces of musicwith unusual ease. His groove controls the band's onslaught and delivers measured blows - just the way we like em!
