Kula Shaker
Despite the negative publicity, the band pressed on regardless with a set of live shows in the summer of that year, including T in the Park, Glastonbury and the V Festival. The focus during the latter part of 1997 moved to the US where both "Tattva" and "Hey Dude" received airplay exposure. "Tattva" became a minor No. 10 hit in the Modern Rock Tracks chart and "Hey Dude" peaked at No. 25. "K" itself peaked at No. 11 in the Heatseekers chart and crept to No. 200 in the Billboard charts. An EP, "Summer Sun", was released in the U.S. for the band's fans there. The six tracks on the EP were all B-sides to earlier UK singles.
