Together we will create a soundscape of sacred Sanskrit mantras to facilitate transformation and healing – raising our vibration as we raise our voices in devotion and ecstatic celebration!
Michael sings with sweet, celestial, heart-felt yearning. His songs are traditional Sanskrit mantras set to his original music, weaving an enchanting soundscape of hypnotic harmonics, joyful celebration, and fierce intensity. His unique melodies (often channeled in dreams) reveal a blend of musical influences including jazz, soul, folk, psychedelic rock, church hymns, Western classical, and Indian classical – creating an innovative fusion that honors the tradition while expressing a deeply personal offering.
Come sing in community, or just bathe in the sound healing!

No experience necessary, and all are welcome regardless of finances.
Come and go as you are able, no one is turned away.

Navaratri is the celebration of the Divine Mother in the form of the three Hindu Goddesses: Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswati.
We’ll celebrate the three Goddesses over the 9 days, Navaratri culminating with a special service called Vijayadaśamī. This is a special opportunity to bless your house and all the tools you use in your work. Please join us for this special celebration.
