New Orleans mantra musicians Sean Johnson and The Wild Lotus Band are a critically acclaimed kirtan trio appreciated equally for the spiritual depth and dynamic musicality of their sound. The band includes vocalist and harmonium player Sean Johnson, founder of the band, bass and guitar player and New Orleans' native Alvin Young, and percussionist and singer Gwendolyn Colman.

Together Sean, Alvin, and Gwendolyn create a contemporary world-spirit music that evokes the magic and mystical feelings of East-West musical exploration, the soul of New Orleans meets the spirit of India.

Their unique music blends ancient eastern mantras with western musical taste, passionate vocals, funky grooves, and meditative melodies. Their distinct approach to chant music transcends genres - shades of rock, jazz, funk, choral, Indian, Irish, Middle Eastern, and folk styles merge effortlessly with the magic of the mantras.

Devaloka is a chant album of ancient chants, passionate vocals, funky grooves, and dreamy melodies blended to create an evocative potion for the spirit. Yoga City NYC says, “Their music is capable of being energetic, grounding, mellow, tender, sweet - eerie, rapturous and blissful all at once.” Renowned yoga teacher, Saul David Raye, says “Truly an awesome experience! - a musical gumbo to stir your soul. Sean has the voice of a deva, an angel - and the band is full of swing, soul, rock, jazz and healing vibrations.”

The band tours worldwide playing at festivals, theatres, yoga studios, retreat centers and yoga conferences.
