For centuries people have been chanting the names of the divine in order to uplift the spirit and bring peace to the mind. Now we have begun to feel their presence here in the West, and receive the blessings of their beauty. Singers/ instrumentalists, Tina Malia and Shimshai, bring their angelic vocals and acoustic instruments to these ancient melodies and mantras. Including guitars, 12 string, percussion from Africa and the Middle East, dulcimer, sitara, kalimba and more. The CD includes a talented array of musicians, including Sasha Butterfly, Al Torre, Vir McCoy and MJ Greenmountain from Hamsa Lila, Lakshmi Ma, and special honored guests Jai Uttal on vocals and dotar, Omar Faruk Tekbilek on vocals, ney and baglama saz, and Yair Dalal on violin and oud. Simple and deeply moving, there are tastes of India, Africa, the Middle East, and the Americas The presence that lies within these ancient mantras move and heal in remarkable ways, and the CD captures that very essence. Making this project has truly been a labor of love for Tina, Shimshai and all involved. Best of all, it comes in 100% recycled packaging with no plastic (except the CD of course)!
