Song Divine is the first-ever musical version of the Hindu epic Bhagavad Gita in English
In the style of a rock opera, the double album tells the story of the young warrior Arjuna’s struggle with social responsibility, guided by his close friend who is, unbeknownst to him, the god Krishna. The 18 songs have funk, pop, rock and classical influences–all laced with Indian flavors–and inspired by traditional ragas. World fusion, indeed!
The project is based on author/teacher Lisa Coffey’s English translation of the Bhagavad Gita, and our collaboration has pushed us both to dig deep and go where no one has gone before.
Whether you’re familiar with Hindu teachings or are simply a seeker of universal truth, our goal for this project is to inspire self-awareness, while offering uplifting tunes with a groove.
"Encounter - Medicine Songs from Ma". Songs - from my heart to yours.
The lyrics are from the heart and soul of a man that has found his true path through the music and spirituality.”

This is the kind of music that seeps into your soul and stays there.
