About the Album This album is an offering of spacious, simple compositions that offer a deep meditative space of healing and relaxation. Bask in the power of ancient mantras, sounds that transform consciousness. Woven within the guitar, harmonium and Bachan Kaur's voice, is a deep sense of love and prayer. The purity in the sound invites surrender into a place of resolution and integration. This entire album is perfect for meditation and relaxation; whether for yoga, healing arts or simply anytime you need to slow down and reconnect with your infinite essence and simplicity. Let these soulful sounds carry you into the place within where the un-struck sound, Anahat, resounds with unconditional love and a healing embrace. The album is entirely self-produced and the cds are packaged in 100% post-consumer recycled cardboard with no jewel case (but still colorful and beautiful!) Soul Songs is the start of what Bachan plans to be a lifetime of sacred sound offerings. It is a great compilation to use for yoga classes, meditation or for listening anytime or place to merge with the sweetness of the soul. About the Artist Bachan Kaur's musical history began when she was a young girl and would sing songs and stories for hours on the toilet or spinning in the backyard. She stopped singing over time like most of us as we move into the stages beyond our uninhibited youth. With time though, by the grace of God, something re-opened when she was in her teenage years. The creative spirit of song began to move again and at the age of 16 she started to learn the guitar and write and record songs. Around 18 she discovered the sacred technology of Kundalini Yoga and a few years later the path of Sikh Dharma. This path was like the vessel that her soul had been longing for, to deliver the sound current that flows within. As a self- taught musician, the gift in Bachan's music is her simplicity, purity and devotion. Bachan Kaur has expressed deep gratitude for the chance to find the technology of sacred sound, "In my experience, sound which is the vibration of all creation, is the most powerful tool to bring together not only all aspects of ourselves, the heavens and the earth, but to bring together humanity beyond the illusion of being separate". Bachan Kaur currently lives in Roberts Creek, Canada, with her husband Rama Singh. They both teach Kundalini Yoga and lead chanting with all faiths. She is a visionary artist (www.huemanbeing.com) having just completed her degree of Fine Arts at the university of British Columbia. She loves to be creative in all areas of life and loves to serve through musical recordings, live chanting and devotional song. It is one of her dreams to be part of the development of an Amazing Aquarian Gospel Choir one day, bringing people together in the Spirit of Oneness and healing.
