An American singer-songwriter

Mahalakshmi is a devotional sound yogini who has been composing music for over twenty years, performing in US, India, and beyond.

She is the featured vocalist of the world fusion band Emam & Friends. She is also a contributing composer. Her work can be heard on Emam & Friend's most recent albums (see below).

THE JOURNEY

Early in life, Mahalakshmi discovered a lifeline in music. Songs came to her ear beyond any conscious intent; songs were created in automatic fashion by her emotions and arrived with words and chords complete.

It was through sound that she discovered her true nature. The feeling of this internal discovery was like uncovering a hidden treasure, like finding fresh air after struggling for breath.

Her work is writing and performing music to bathe in the beauty of the soul, and to share this with You.

In her early years, as it is today, visual art and writing remain outputs of her creativity, however, the only medium she feels fully expresses her innermost heart is music. Mahalakshmi wishes to gift the world this music from her soul as it comes from the place where we all meet as one.
