Wynne Paris Kirtana Americana
|
|
Thursday, May 8th, 7:00-9:00pm
Come experience Kirtan with Wynne Paris. Groove out with sacred mantras, classical Indian instruments and the powerful voice of kirtan leader, Wynne Paris and his fellow devoted musician friends. Wynne is a world beat artist/producer and musician who has spent the last decade devoted to an emerging genre of spiritual music: Yoga music and Kirtan. Wynne’s artistic sound is derived from 20 years of musical adventures and spiritual experiences. Wynne spent most of his twenties playing rock guitar and singing the blues at nightclubs around Washington DC. In 1994, at the age of 30, Wynne took up yoga, dated a bellydancing astrologer, and had a series of spiritual and mystical experiences that transformed not only his musical style, but his vision of the world. One evening in 1996, Wynne was invited to jam with the Indian Saint Ammachi. The Darshan or blessings he received from Amma the “hugging saint” inspired a vision quest to California and ultimately a move to Marin county to study Indian music, shamanism and yoga. Since this time Wynne has produced a number of albums including ‘Grooveananda’ and has played hundreds of gigs across the country, alone or accompanying other chanters, including Krishna Das, Wah, David Newman, Dave Stringer, and Bhagavan Das. Wynne Paris is a Rock, New Age and world beat musician/producer with a special love for yoga music and kirtan, the call-and-response singing of Bhakti yoga. His live performance combines Kirtan chanting, American music (jazz, gospel music, blues and rock music), world beat rhythms and raga scales. He sings in both English and Sanskrit, and plays guitar,sarod (a 26 stringed, sitar-like instrument from India),harmonium, and percussion. $20 |
