Dive into the sacred ocean of Kirtan with harmonium master & vocalist Punnu Singh Wasu and his musicians and enjoy a unique concert of various Indian music flavors.

Kirtan is a form of devotional chanting whose roots go back over thousands of years to India. It is a form of Bhakti Yoga (yoga of devotion) and these ancient chants (mantras) are energetic sound formulas, which have a powerful transformative healing energy. Kirtan has the power to dig into the heart’s deepest well to touch and be touched by the Divine Presence.

Punnu’s musical style is a mix of East meets West – Indian Fusion. The concerts he leads often build from a slow, meditative tempo to a high paced catharsis. The concerts he leads often build from a slow, meditative tempo to a high paced catharsis. He has a remarkably soulful voice that touches the deepest chord in even the most casual listener and it is common for his audiences to clap their hands or stand up and dance during his concerts.

Kirtan began in India centuries ago as a spiritual practice for the people as a way to gather and connect to the Divine. By joining in the mantras as you find your voice, you will learn and repeat them and feel their vibration move through you. Song, sound and music all have a frequency that can help to clear blocked energy, shift emotional moods and uplift the soul invoking increased energy, movement and even dance.
