A graduate of Yogi Bhajan’s foreign education program in India, and a member of the yogic community from her very first breath, she has been surrounded by devotional music of the far East for as long as she can remember. She studied Classical Indian dance for a number of years before embarking on the journey that has led her to the creative expression she is now exploring. Her inspiration comes from Yogiji’s teachings, and is set to music ranging from ancient to contemporary, Eastern to Western, The Beatles to Bjork to Tabla Beat Science. Jai sets her body in motion across the floor in the same way a writer sets his or her pen in motion across the page, and with the same intention: to tell the stories that live within.

Sat Kartar Singh is musically born from the crucible of the sixties. His early training in music was guitar, voice, and trombone. Playing trombone gave him a six year experience in his high school marching band which was great fun!
The Master’s Touch opened Sat Kartar up to the world of Mantra and Naad Yoga, the yoga of sound. During the last half of the seventies, Sat Kartar immersed himself in the music of Kundalini Yoga mantras and songs, as well as Gurbani Kirtan, the music of the Sikh scriptures. This included learning tabla, harmonium, and the basics of the science of Raga.
Sat Kartar Singh began performing with GuruGanesha Singh in the early nineties and became one of his go-to band mates for local events. Together they have a chant CD called “Live at Five” which was done out of pure love.
Sat Kartar Singh is very excited to be participating in the tour. Icing on the cake is that they will be joined by daughter Jai Khalsa.
