Music, Neuroscience + Consciousness
Dave Stringer performs and discusses mantra music and its effects on the mind.
Dave Stringer is a Grammy®-nominated producer, singer, songwriter and innovative modern Kirtan artist, profiled in publications all over the world. Stringer’s sound connects the transcendent mysticism of traditional Indian instruments with the exuberant, groove-oriented sensibility of American Gospel and the ringing harmonies of Appalachia. He is featured in the documentary films Mantra: Sounds into Silence and The Power of Mantra.
Initially trained as a visual artist, filmmaker and jazz musician, Stringer’s focus shifted significantly after video editing work brought him to an ashram in India in 1990. It has also been informed by a subsequent period of service teaching meditation to prison inmates and expanded by his interest and research in neuroscience. An articulate and engaging public speaker, Stringer probes the dilemmas of the spirit with a wry and unorthodox sense of humor. His work intends to create a modern and participatory theatrical experience out of the venerable traditions of kirtan and yoga, open to a multiplicity of interpretations, and accessible to all.
In the last decades, Yoga has grown from Indian roots into a global cultural phenomenon. Simultaneously, Kirtan, an ecstasy-inducing, call-and-response form of mantra chanting, has experienced a worldwide renaissance. Stringer and a diverse ensemble of accompanying musicians travel extensively, giving concerts, workshops and retreats worldwide.
He was nominated for a Grammy® in 2016 for his work as the producer and co-writer of the album Bhakti Without Borders, and nominated as an artist for a Grammy® in 2023 for Mantra Americana along with collaborator Madi Das. Mantra Americana II was released Summer 2023 and Thrum, a recording of jazz-inflected duets in English with singer-songwriter Sheila Nicholls, is set for release in the Spring of 2024.
