Inspired by the profound mood of devotional Indian singing and music, Jaya Lakshmi began leading kirtan with harmonium and 12 string guitar and writing her own devotional songs over 14 years ago on the island of Hawaii, shortly after she received harinam initiation from Srila Govinda Maharaj. Her potently pure voice and high energy kirtans have generated waves of love throughout communities in the islands of Hawaii, the west coast, and Europe, always creating a deep sense of intimacy with the divine.
In addition to leading kirtan, she is the lead singer and songwriter for the band “One at Last” (formerly Lost at Last), a high energy tribal trance experience that has toured extensively throughout the West Coast.
Her three kirtan CDs ‘Ocean of Mercy’ (2003) ‘Jewel of Hari’ (2004) and ‘Sublime’ (2008) are available on Sequoia Records. Reviews are available at Amazon.com, Yahoo.com, SequoiaRecords.com and elsewhere.
