Kansas City, MO – A Sikh and Kundalini Yoga teacher, Snatam Kaur is a singer and musician, gaining a growing fame in the world of spiritual music.

After a few years as the singer of the spiritual music group The Peace Family, she started a solo career. Her music mixes western melodies with Indian sounds, mantras from the Kundalini yoga tradition, words of Harbhajan Singh Yogi and personal lyrics.

She often tours in the United States and Canada, and within Sikh communities worldwide (India, Singapore) among which she is renowned as a talented kirtan singer.

Spiritual music artists such as Deva Premal now sing her compositions.
