ABOUT ANANDA XENIA SHAKTI:
As a founding member of the B-Girls, Ananda (known then as Xenia Holliday) played guitar and sang in one of the original girl-punk groups of the late ’70s. As their popularity grew, the band relocated from Toronto to NYC, where they played the hotspots and toured numerous times with The Clash. Signed to Bomp! Records, the band sang back-up on Blondie’s smash album “AutoAmerican” as well as Stiv Bators’ solo album.

Ananda’s spiritual awakening came while living in NYC. She made a huge life decision and left the B-Girls to pursue yoga and the spiritual principals of life, with a firm inner commitment to merge modern music and ancient life teachings. She is an international Yoga Trainer, founding Sananda yoga training courses since 2004, and Choose Love Karmic Readings. in which she acts as a conduit of Higher Realms wisdom for clients and through which she receives healing ‘Poetry’ similar to the style of Rumi that she transforms into song.

Ananda spends a good deal of time in India and incorporates the ancient language of Sanskrit into some of the healing tunes. Her vision is always focused towards merging opposites into “Oneness,”…ancient and modern, audience and band, dance and stillness, vibration and comprehension.

Omar releases ‘Along the Coast’

Today marks the day Omar releases “Along the Coast,” the second track in his ‘Felt Piano’ series, available on all streaming platforms. You will now be able to enjoy Omar’s intimate, close-up piano touch, with enhanced acoustics and a double-felted piano that allows the full effects to come through.

When asked, Omar told us that “the full beauty of the piano can only be captured when all the sounds are heard and conveyed.” Omar also explained that his objective is to “allow his fans to hear exactly what he hears, the special sounds that can only be heard and recorded when you are very close to the piano.”

Omar’s new release is a calm, relaxing track, featuring sweet melodies and harmonies that offer a moment of serenity and peace amid such a chaotic world. More from this unique pianist is found at “Omar Plays Piano” on YouTube.
