Mirabai Ceiba is an angelic musical vehicle that is the product of Angelika Baumbach and Markus Sieber. The ceiba is the sacred tree of Mexico and the music on A Hundred Blessings is saturated with a deep sense of gratitude and love that is a fusion of the Kundalini path mantras and Native Latin America which honors nature and the experience of the sacred in all of us.
Mirabai's artistry flows through this album on a wind of rich creativity, musical depth and sacred spirit. With a beautiful blend of mantras and songs, this album includes the prayers and mantras of Guru Nanak and Yogi Bhajan blended with the poetry of Rumi, Thich Nhat Hanh and Mirabai Ceiba`s own gentle poems.
UMA MOHAN – Born in Chennai on 31st October 1966, into a family of musicians, was trained from her childhood by her mother and Guru Smt.P.L.Saraswathy Ram in classical carnatic music. Initially, after having had several experiential revelations, she began writing songs in Tamil, which she released. Then, she did a series of Devotional albums with songs from all languages including Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, and foreign languages like Singhalese and English. She also cut a solo CD in English-for Divine healing, called “Ocean Of Love” which was well received in Russia, Sweden, and India. At this point, her interest in the Vedas took over and she started coaching a group of youths to chant the Vedas, which on popular demand materialized as the Sacred Chants Series of 3 volumes released by Kosmic Music.
DEVA, the new release from Deva Premal, is a calling – beyond the chattering mind, the heaviness of the heart and the numerous distractions of life, into a place of refuge and conscious relaxation.
