Snatam Kaur official website

Officially launched at Sat Nam Fest in Joshua Tree, California in April 2012, the Essence of God’s Name tour is a celebration of sacred sound. Snatam Kaur leads the audience on a heart-opening experience to bliss and beyond. She is joined by a collective of enlightened musicians to induce a deeply meditative flow of grace that re-calibrates the soul, aligning it to love, light and compassion. Joining her is San Francisco based guitarist/multi-instrumentalist and composer Todd Boston, tabla player/percussionist Ramesh Kannan and cellist Matthew Schoening weave a deeply lavish and transcendental vibrational grid.

Snatam’s legacy as a teacher, sacred singer, luminary touring performer and prolific recording artist are the fruit of an 11-year of non-stop journey of live performances attended by tens of thousands of both devoted followers and new faces. She recently graced the pages of Oprah’s “O” magazine and performed for Oprah on her birthday in Maui. Like countless others around the planet Oprah “plays her [music] everyday before meditating”.

Her September 2012 CD release (tentatively titled Heart of the Universe), a collaboration with pianist / composer and 6-time Grammy nominee, Peter Kater, marks Snatam’s 11th major release since 2001. She best describes the recording as “poems about awakening and consciousness and light.”

Todd Boston official website

San Francisco based guitarist/multi-instrumentalist and composer Todd Boston lives a musical life. He brings with him a devoted heart to connect, share and enrich the lives of those he touches through the positive effects of music, sound, and vibration.

While spending a number of months in the pristine mountains of Vermont he has recently completed his second album titled Touched by the Sun with Grammy winning producer Will Ackerman (Windham Hill Records) and a group of world class musicians including Tony Levin (Peter Gabriel) Eugene Friesen (Paul Winter Consort), Jeff Haynes (Pat Methany Group) and vocalist Snatam Kaur. He will be touring internationally in support of the new album as a soloist, as well as in various ensembles including singer Snatam Kaur's band together with longtime musical partner Ramesh Kannan (Tabla, Percussion) throughout 2012.
On stage, he fuses an acoustic world sound with advanced finger style guitar techniques, percussion and various instruments in combination with live looping technology to create a mesmerizing and impressionable sound. As a performer for concert audiences, yoga classes or at the bedside of hospital patients, Todd invokes the feelings of nature in his melodic and rhythmic playing to inspire his listeners.

"Todd Boston is almost impossibly talented, he’s a brilliant guitarist. Touched by the Sun is the work of a mature artist who has come of age and who has given us a great recording of singularity and value, the world’s a better place for his gift."
- Will Ackerman (Grammy winner and founder of Windham Hill Records)
