Snatam Kaur to play Old Stone Church

Published 5:00 am Friday, May 25, 2007

The Old Stone Church at 157 N.W. Franklin Ave. in Bend will open for a special show by New Age artist Snatam Kaur tonight. The show is part of Kaurs ongoing Celebrate Peace Tour, a live musical celebration of the spirit of peace that Kaur believes is in each and every one of us.

Kaur, who is Sikh, was born in Colorado and spent most her early years in California, where she meditated and chanted with her parents. She also traveled to India, where she studied music under Bhai Hari Singh and soaked in the sound of kirtan, or devotional music of the Sikh faith.

Now living in Eugene, she has recorded seven albums for the Spirit Voyage label. The albums are influenced by both Eastern and Western traditions and feature Kaurs pure, pretty voice.

Check out www.snatamkaur.com and let Kaurs tranquil music wash over you, then hold on to that feeling next time youre stuck in traffic on Reed Market Road.

Tonights show will start at 7:30 p.m., with doors opening at 7 p.m. Advance tickets cost $15 and are available at www.spiritvoyage.com or at The Curiosity Shoppe (382-3408) in Bend. Tickets will also be sold for $20 at the door.
