Sean Johnson and The Wild Lotus
Band are celebrated as one of the most exciting and musically
dynamic kirtans artists in the west. The band’s unique music evocatively
blends ancient eastern mantras with western musical taste, passionate
vocals, funky grooves, and dreamy melodies. Their innovative approach
to chant music transcends genres—shades of rock, jazz, funk, choral,
Indian, Irish, Middle Eastern, and folk styles merge effortlessly with
the magic of the mantras. They are the first kirtan artists to ever be
invited to play The New Orleans Jazz Festival.
Yoga Journal
has praised the band, “A joy to listen to whether you’re a yogi or
anyone who appreciates wildly creative music.”
Yoga Chicago
says, "Their music will ignite the world...a hybrid of East and West
that will bring joy to your heart and get your body boogieing." Sean and
the band's latest album
Devaloka was released by
Nettwerk/Nutone Music- home of Sarah McLaughlin, Barenaked Ladies,
Krishna Das, Jai Uttal and many other artists.
Yoga City NYC
says, “Their music is capable of being energetic, grounding, mellow,
tender, sweet- eerie, rapturous and blissful all at once.
