Skyharbor was an Indian–American progressive metal band with members based in New Delhi and Mumbai (India) and Cleveland, Ohio (United States). The project began as guitarist Keshav Dhar’s solo studio venture. In October 2010, Daniel Tompkins (then vocalist of TesseracT) contacted Dhar with interest in collaborating. Around the same time, Dhar connected with Maryland‑based drummer Anup Sastry (Jeff Loomis, Intervals), who had uploaded YouTube videos performing Skyharbor material. Together with bassist Nikhil Rufus Raj, the group made its live debut as an instrumental trio at the 2011 Bacardi NH7 Weekender festival. After signing with Basick Records, Skyharbor released their debut album Blinding White Noise: Illusion and Chaos on 23 April 2012. The double‑disc release featured: Daniel Tompkins on the Illusion disc, Sunneith Revankar (Bhayanak Maut) on the Chaos disc. Most of the material consisted of refined versions of Dhar’s early demos. Drummer Anup Sastry later described the project’s origins as entirely Dhar’s creation, noting that the move toward a full band happened organically after he began posting YouTube performances of the songs. The tracks “Catharsis” and “Celestial” included guest guitar solos by Marty Friedman (Megadeth). Shortly after the album’s release, Skyharbor announced Daniel Tompkins as their official lead vocalist.
