Grammy awards Nominee for the Best New Age Album category, Krishna Das, beautifully merges the East and West dichotomy by layering the traditional verses with modern instrumentation. Known as yoga’s ‘rock star’, Krishna Das or KD (as he is also called by his fans) has the most remarkably soulful voice that can move even the most casual listener.
Giving the young and old a chance to experience divinity, KD has taken ‘call-and-response chanting’ at yoga centers and into concert halls, thus becoming a worldwide icon and the best-selling Western chant artist of all times. He has sold over 300,000 records, and the award-winning film 'One Track Heart: The Story of Krishna Das' has been in over 100 US cities, 10 countries worldwide.
His latest album, Kirtan Wallah is already making waves around the world. In Kirtan Wallah, which is his 14th album, KD offers a westward-leaning album, fully embracing his American roots in rock and country style; and yet embodying the spirit of Indian chants. The chanting, KD promises, “cuts through all the 'stuff'. You get lit up. You don't have to know what it means.”
So, come along and experience this magic with KD. He is all set for a 3-city India tour starting with Mumbai on January 16, followed by Bengaluru on January 20th and New Delhi on 23/24th January.
Here’s a glimpse of KD and his mystical music:
