We are completely connected when we play music. It's always very clear to me that the music is coming from somewhere else. It's coming from God - Krishna. Music is the heart-beat of the planet. It's raining down on my head, flying through the air, dancing between every particle of matter - only, some of us can hear it. The inspiration of music is one of the fingerprints of God. Listen up.

THE FEWS
The rock incarnation. Elvis Costello meets The Clash, The Police and Coltrane. Energetic and Folk/Reggae/Punk/Funk/Rock/Jazz. Hear me now! Are you one of the FEW?
AS KINDRED SPIRITS
Rich ethnic melodies and rhythms with Western harmonies and arrangements. 5000 year old songs offered with energy and style. The sources of this music are the deep friendships and respect the musicians have for each other. That's real power. You hear the SHAKTI in the music. Groundbreaking.
LIVE KIRTAN
Forget the studio cuz. We are 100% live here! Throw 6 Gurukulis in a temple with 150 whisting, screaming, yelping devotees for 2 weekends of psychotic, mind-bending, heart-stopping, thumping kirtan and stir to taste. That's a recipe. Nothing like this has ever been heard. WARNING! Yogis - Check your mats at the door. We might be here all night. (:
Hari hariiibool!! Gauravani ki jayy! I hope you had a confortable journey back to the states. It was great having you here in this important moment of my life,I grew up in NG and participated on most of the festivals,but this one was surely one of the most intense festivals that Nova Gokula had, definitely positive for all the guests and devotes. this was the 1st 24 hour kirtan of brazil and it was very very spiritually pleasureous. I hope that the next and the next are going to be much more intense,and offcourse even better if Gauravani could be present in all of them. Gaurvani thank you for bringing all that ouside energy to here, this place and all the kulis from here needed that a lot including me, truly I started to get involved with bhajans and kirtans a year ago when i moved to alachua,so this moments are essential for me to build my spiritual strenght. I wish the best for you,your wife,the two kids and the one on the way here. The Lord's protection be with this fantastic devote. RADHE RADHE!! SYAMM
