Johanna and Daniel Stewart first sang together more than a year ago at Pranafest. This special evening brings them together again to make sweet music and open hearts. This is Johanna’s first appearance at Govindas and Radha’s LA Kirtan Hub.
Daniel Stewart is a sacred musician, a beloved yoga teacher, co-owner of Rising Lotus Yoga in Sherman Oaks, and an holistic, Mind/Body Psychotherapist. He is deeply in love with the art and practice of Kirtan and feels blessed to share its healing, transformational power. Daniel’s Kirtan is a unique blend of rocking western soul and jazz style improvisation with authentic Sanskrit mantras. He is known for his joyful, ecstatic singing and for the dharma talks (about Self-realization and consciousness) that he weaves throughout, The numinous connection he feels singing is evident in the bhakti energy that grows in the room and the heart opening and Self-awakening often experienced by participants. He believes that together the musicians and the audience find union as they create an ecstatic experience of blissful music, deep meditation, and sweet, expansive consciousness.
