Kirtan Concert with Sean Johnson and the Wild Lotus Band
Sing, dance, and take your heart for a joyride tonight with New Orleans' mantra musicians Sean Johnson and The Wild Lotus Band, celebrated as one of the most exciting and musically dynamic kirtan artists in the West. Blending mantra, rock, and funk sounds--they are the first kirtan band to ever play the New Orleans Jazz Festival.
"Their music will ignite the world...a hybrid of East and West that will bring joy to your heart and get your body boogieing." -- Yoga Chicago
Sean Johnson and The Wild Lotus Band (Gwendolyn Colman and Alvin Young) is a critically acclaimed kirtan trio that is appreciated equally for the spiritual depth and dynamic musicality of its sound.
The band's unique music evocatively blends ancient Eastern mantras with Western musical taste, passionate vocals, funky grooves, and dreamy melodies.
They play at venues worldwide, including yoga conferences, retreat centers, yoga and music festivals, and studios small and large. The group’s latest album, Devaloka, has become a favorite in the global yoga community and beyond.
