About

Krishna Das was born in the United States and traveled to India in the late 1960s with his mentor Ram Dass to study with Dass's guru, the Maharaj-ji. After years of study and devotional practice, Das returned to the States, determined to bring Indian religious chants to the American public. He founded the world music label Triloka Records and began releasing solo albums that mixed traditional sacred music with electronic flourishes.
