An Evening of Mantra MusicWith Seán Johnson & The Wild Lotus Band
Seán Johnson & The Wild Lotus Band, founded in New Orleans, have been blending ancient mantras with a rich tapestry of musical influences since their formation in 2005. Led by vocalist and harmonium player Seán Johnson, the band includes Alvin Young on bass and guitar, Narada Wise on drums, and guest vocalist Paloma Devi.
Their music seamlessly integrates sacred chants from yoga traditions and beyond with elements of gospel, rock, blues, Celtic folk, and world grooves, creating a sound that resonates with a diverse audience.
The band's debut album, Calling The Spirits, released in 2007, garnered attention for its innovative approach to kirtan music. Subsequent albums, such as Unity, which debuted at #1 on the iTunes World Music Chart, and Mystery, recognized as one of Louisiana's best albums by Offbeat Magazine, have further solidified their place in the global spiritual music scene. Their work has been featured on Putumayo World Music compilations, and they made history as the first mantra-based band to perform at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.
