Simrit is making waves and driving a musical movement for its healing effect: hypnotic rhythm, haunting beauty, edge and mind-blowing atmosphere. Transcending genres with an eclectic and eccentric mix of instruments and lineages, the Simrit experience is based around lead singer-songwriter, Athens-born Simrit Kaur. Traditional Greek music, roots reggae and Motown have proven to be deeply influential on Simrit as she developed her own unique sound.

Salif Bamakora on the 21-string West African kora completes the sound, Shannon Hayden on electric cello (which he plays through a pedalboard with wild effects) and guitar, Jared May on bass and Moog and Devon Ashley on drums and other percussion.
