2nd Annual FUNdraiser & Kirtan Dance Party

Bhaktiland invites you to join us in an evening of devotional music and dance.

We are proud to feature these special guest artists:

C.C. WHITE in a special appearance all the way from California! She previously appeared at BhaktiFest and Ecstatic Chant workshops at the Omega Institute. C.C. White’s performances have won her wide recognition as “The Queen of Soul Kirtan.” Embodied in one exotic, soulful being, her unique, soul-flavored chant performances effortlessly enrapture audiences, lifting their vibrations sky high with powerful, soaring call-and-response vocals and masterful musicianship, and inspiring ecstatic dancing.

THE MAYAPURIS are celebrating the release of their long-awaited 2nd album, 9 Islands. Five hundred years ago, a tradition of sacred music broke out of the strict confines of Indian temples and danced into the streets of the revered city of Mayapur, India. Today, the Mayapuris, an electrifying band of drummers and dancers, continue that revolution by invigorating old mantras with their own fresh sound replete with irresistible, earth-shaking rhythms and enchanting transcendental vibration. Their debut album, Mridanga, reached the top of the  iTunes World Music Chart, and their music video was featured in Yoga Journal. The Mayapuris are Visvambhar Sheth (Mridanga, harmonium, guitar, vocals), Bali Rico (Mridanga),  Kish Rico (flute, whompers, vocals), and Dhanya Rico (vocals, keyboard). Visit www.mayapuris.com.
