Ananda

Ananda is Sanskrit for “bliss,” and this is the experience our music provides. Ananda features soaring violin melodies, soulful guitar chords, energetic tabla rhythms, and ethereal soundscapes from crystal singing bowls. We take listeners on a journey into deep inner peace, joyful abandon, heart-breaking sadness, and a felt sense of connection with all that is.
