Kirtan, Mantra, Sound Healing, and Soul Songs

Montecito-raised musician Joss Jaffe, who basically created his own sub-genre of dub-mantra by combining the rhythms of reggae with chanting and world jazz, is back in town for a final show with frequent partner Johanna Beekman. Jaffe, a Top-Ten New Age Billboard chanting artist whose four albums have been critically acclaimed, teams with Beekman, whose soulful voice evincing her gospel background, radiant spirit and inspiring songs and sacred chants has made her a rising star in the world of kirtan and yoga music, for an evening at the Santa Barbara Yoga Center from 7-9 pm on Sunday, March 15. Admission is by a $20 suggested donation.
