An Evening Of Mantra Music with Seán Johnson & The
Wild Lotus Band
Enjoy a night of interactive, soul-stirring ancient
mantras given new voice through dynamic songs that merge conscious
lyrics and New Orleans roots, rock, gospel, and world grooves. The
band is celebrating the release of their critically acclaimed new
album 'Mystery,' named one of the best albums of the year in
Louisiana music by Offbeat Magazine. Their previous album Unity,
dedicated to celebrating the threads between the world's spiritual
traditions, debuted #1 on the iTunes World Music Chart and #3 on
Billboard. They are a featured artist on Putumayo World Music, and
are the first mantra-based band to ever play the New Orleans Jazz
Festival.
"The music of Seán Johnson & The Wild Lotus Band flows
from the mystical confluence of the Ganges River and the
Mississippi Delta—the deep bhakti tradition of Indian devotional
chanting fused with the cultural cross-currents that so enrich the
music of their hometown of New Orleans. The yoga community’s
much-beloved band evoke, conjure and celebrate that universally
felt yet impossible-to-define essence that lies at the heart of all
things, what Bob Marley once called “a natural mystic, flowing
through the air.” -- Alan di Perna
“Their music will ignite the world...a hybrid of East and West
that will bring joy to your heart and get your body boogieing.” -
