Passion and Grace: The Art of Devotional Singing
Jai Uttal with Daniel Paul

Embark on a journey into the multi-colored, many roomed mansions of the heart through the practice of Kirtan. Using call-and-response singing and storytelling, recording artist Jai Uttal will invoke a space of prayer and heartfelt expression, joined by his good friend, tabla maestro and vocalist Daniel Paul.

In the practice of Kirtan we are able to come into contact with the wide palette of feelings inside of us and to begin to freely express them and share them with others. Rather than being obstacles in our path, these emotions become the fuel to connect us to the Spirit, to our eternal beloved. This deep river of passionate surrender and prayer is known as Bhakti Yoga, the Yoga of devotion or personal relationship with the divine.

Jai Uttal, a sacred music composer, recording artist, multi-instrumentalist and ecstatic vocalist, combines influences from India with influences from American rock and jazz, creating a stimulating and exotic multi-cultural fusion that is truly world spirit music. Jai has been leading kirtans around the world for more than 30 years, creating a safe environment for people to open their hearts and voices.
