Happy
Maha Shivaratri!
It's a beautiful day to celebrate the union of
Shiva/Shakti, the Divine Masculine and the Divine Feminine. It's also a
great time to integrate those aspects of ourselves that we think of as
"opposites." Think union, not separation. And love everything. And
chant Om Namah Shivaya as much as you can during this auspicious time.
Here's
track 2 ("Om Namah Shivaya/Holder of the Moon) from my new album BEYOND
THE BEYOND: A MANTRA MUSIC EXPERIENCE.
There's a long story behind the
title, and behind the music and melody for this mantra, which you can
read in my liner notes.
This track features an amazing ensemble of maestros in the kirtan world: the incomparable #CCWhite on backing vocals, #StevePostell on electric guitar, #WynneParis and #AnthonyMolina on additional acoustic and electric guitars, (Anthony also plays piano, percussion and more); #HollyMontgomery (my idol) on bass guitar and #AndyHamburger on kit drums (channeling his inner #KeithMoon). The elegant and talented #JohnMCDowell plays Hammond organ and African drums. Internationally reknowned sound healer #PhilippeGarnier
sings the intro and plays the Sruti box, crystal bowls, chimes, and
overtones. Response chorus includes sweet devis Eileen O'Hare and Cat
Guthrie of #Blissing. Produced with my beloved bhakti brothers #GauraVani (who also came up with the great song title and got this big ball rolling) and #AnthonyMolina (who held things together as the ball kept rolling). I love you all!
