David Newman, also known as Durga Das, is a Kirtan Chant Artist and a practitioner and educator of Bhakti Yoga - the yoga of love. David, a devotee of Neem Karoli Baba, travels extensively singing Kirtan (Indian devotional chanting) and sharing the spiritual, devotional, meditative and musical aspects of yoga. David's music, rooted in the ancient yogic tradition of sound as a healing path toward self discovery (Nada Yoga), embodies a devotional mysticism, distinctive musicality, poetic intimacy and a deep respect for India's ancient chant tradition. His recordings expand the traditional Kirtan medium by incorporating a wide range of musical and lyrical elements and by exploring a vast palette of progressive production influences.
Featured Track:
"He Maha Lakshmi"
"'He Maha Lakshmi' is the lead off track from my latest release Love Peace Chant on Nutone Music. It is a Kirtan Chant that we merged with an Americana Rock 'n Roll Groove. The chant itself is a celebration of the Divine Feminine in Her forms as Creator, Preserver and Dissolver. We infused a lot of upbeat and positive energy both into the mantra and music and had some great musicians and chanters join us. Listening to this piece is always uplifting to me. The groove and feel are devotionally infectious and bring a smile to my face when I hear it. Enjoy!" (David)
