By singing these prayers we join a stream of consciousness and devotion that has been flowing for centuries.” Jai began his musical exploration of Indian music studying with the legendary Ali Akbar Khan.He then began regular pilgrimages to India, living among the Bauls, the wandering street musicians of Bengal, and singing with the kirtan wallahs in the temples of his guru, the highly revered saint, Neem Karoli Baba.Tickets are $20 in advance, $22 at the door, $10 for teens 12-17 and free under 12.
