One translation for Kirtan (also knows as Bhakti Yoga) is “to celebrate in song.” This celebration is brought to life and shared brilliantly through the easeful, gracious and proficient musical offerings of Leraine Horstmanshoff.
     Leraine effortlessly connects to each instrument that she brings into play and the sweet vibration of love is easily accessed through the interplay of call and response with the audience. When we repeat these mantra’s and prayers we call the things we most want to us. By combining the vibrations of music, love, appreciation and connection the energy rises and settles sweetly into the core of our beings. Leraine has quickly become a master of this chanting style and leads each group fluently along the sound currents which connect us to the divine spirit that lives and flows in all things.
    Music has always been an integral part of Leraine's life. With a trunk load of instruments from guitar to didgeridoo, Leraine expresses her inner light through music. With the release of the CD "Harmony" Leraine embarks on a new and powerful path… music as spiritual practice. Her voice has grown rich and full and now she is ready to share her innate and Newabundant musical mastery to bring people together to raise consciousness on the planet.
     Leraine is creating a large following of Kirtan regulars and leads/plays regularly at The Center For Spiritual Living in Salt Lake City where Reverend Elizabeth O’Day says, “….Leraine is heart-centered, spirit-filled and an excellent musician. She brings a contemporary presence to the music, as well as deeply authentic material.”
     As a world-traveled musician, Leraine’s path into spirit-centered music continues and she is excited to be able to share her God-given gifts of music and connection with people all over the world.
     To experience her live, is to feel connected to your essence.
