Dimapur, Nov. 27 (EMN): A popular Wokha-based rock band K3M released its debut official music video “Children of a lesser God” at Hotel Serrano in Wokha in the presence of Deputy Commissioner of Wokha Ajit Kumar Ranjan.

Speaking as special guest at the release function, Ranjan said that the debut video release may look like one small beginning for the band, but it was a giant leap for the music scene in the district. He also remarked that with modern technological advancement and spread of social media, the space for arts and music has been democratised leading further to cutting down the cost of production. He urged all to make ample use of the options available to excel in all fields at the district, state, national and international levels.

K3M’s frontman Thung R Murry (Thungbemo) said he started writing the song in the third month of 2021 inspired by his personal experiences with an elder, who was born with a medical condition and therefore a child with special needs.

Holding back tears, he urged everyone to provide more attention to children with special needs. The lyrics of the song “He struggles to navigate this brave new world/he fights alone/from cradle to the grave/wasted and wounded fighting this battle/too faint to lift his eyes… give him wings to fly/tightly sealed inside his own body/they are the children of a lesser God…” speaks of deep personal feelings for a dear, lost sibling, he said.

K3M is a popular Wokha-based metal band officially formed in 2008 though their origin dates back to 1996-2007, when the present members first embarked on their musical journey together as a tight-knit rock band playing cover songs under ‘Sound Craft’.

K3M is made up of Thung R Murry (Thungbemo) on vocals, keys and bass; Vungshamo Murry (Moonshine) on guitars; Tsenjonthung Odyuo (Sheet) on guitars; and Janbemo Mozhui on drums.

S Mhathung Ngullie as band manager, Nchumthung Murry as media manager, Mhono Lotha (MJ) as costume and make-up artist, and Moyuchen K Yanthan as producer completes the management team of K3M.

On September 12, 2013, K3M signed the Artist Management Agreement with Sky Entertainment and performed numerous shows under the banner. More recently, K3M has signed a stakeholder partnership agreement with Indian Social Responsibility Network (ISRN) in the presence of United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Chief Medical Officer Wokha and JSI Team on April 14, 2022 to spread awareness in community mobilisation especially amongst youngsters for COVID-19 vaccination. K3M is also empanelled with Task Force for Music and Arts (TaFMA), Government of Nagaland.
