Description:
Dave Stringer, an accomplished composer, multi-instrumentalist and singer, has a special gift for bringing people together in ecstatic chant - his own version of "kirtan"- devotional, group singing. He's has been profiled in Time, Billboard, In Style, and Yoga Journal as a leader of the new American kirtan movement. Kirtan (pronounced keer-tahn) is a form of mantra chanting that has become popular as a participatory live music experience at hundreds of yoga studios worldwide.
