Kirtan (pronounced keer-tahn) is a practice of Bhakti Yoga (the Yoga of Devotion). It is a participatory, call and response form of singing which is expanding throughout North America as westerners discover it’s uplifting, healing and joyous effects. Open to participants of all religions or no religion at all, Kirtan is easy to learn and participate in. The lead singer sings simple and beautiful melodies and the crowd responds either by memory or by using lyric sheets provided. Kirtan is a beautiful opportunity for people to come together to open their hearts and chant the many names of the Divine.

“Brenda is a powerhouse: a strong and supple voice, sublime songwriting, a compassionate presence, steady wisdom, and a great sense of humor. Traveling and singing with her is incredibly fun. I’d follow her anywhere.”
- Dave Stringer

"...Brenda McMorrow's mellifluous voice touches the heart and ear with an immediate, expansive and nourishing ease; it is a voice that broadcasts equal parts eternal wisdom and eternal youth." 
- Mount Shasta Magazine

"As rich as it is with good feeling and Leinbach's warm production space, Ameya depends on Brenda McMorrow's dusky voice and laid-back but earthy, present style, as beguiling, sensual, and sweet as you always imagined life could be...When yogic chant and singer-songwriter talent merges in a nurturing voice like McMorrow's we all benefit. This wandering Canadian folk troubadour has found a home in the boundless flow of newly awakened spirit; the power and light is audible in her every breath on Ameya, and you, me, and the world are all invited to dance, meditate, sing along, or just drift in the flow of a happy, settled heart."
