Prajna Vieira & the Mukti Kirtan Ensemble
“Mukti” is the acclaimed kirtan ensemble fronted by vocalist Prajna Vieira, guitarist Donald Fontowitz and tabla player Ramana Erickson. Their sensuous blend of tabla rhythms, Hindustani slide guitar, harmonium and extraordinary vocals create a rich foundation for both traditional Indian and modern original kirtans.
“A journey of devotion & inspiration infused with incredible songwriting, masterful musicianship, a myriad of world music flavors & intertwining vocals that soar into the heavens, yet overflow with earthly delights and words that come straight from the heart. Prajna Vieira has a beautiful voice that is rich, soulfully sweet, and prone to taking off into divine spaces.” —Common Ground Magazine
