Simrit

Born in Athens, Greece, of Cretan and North African origin, and raised in South Carolina, Simrit carries the legacy of a long line of matriarchal singers. From the haunting chants of the Greek Orthodox church choir she sang in as a child, to her studies in West African drumming, classical piano, and Indian classical music, Simrit has woven a tapestry of influences into a sound that is unmistakably her own. Evoking the influences of her heritage with kirtan, American folk, Roots Reggae, R&B, and Rock with her decades of study in Naad Yoga – the ancient science of sound that transforms consciousness – Simrit’s music has a vibrational power that audiences feel deeply. Her concerts are electrifying journeys where healing and joy meet, and fans often describe the experience as life-changing.
