An album of songs from the DEEP...soulful lyrics set to epic grooves that will move your body and uplift your spirit!
“I want to sing the songs that open doors of perception and give us permission to step into our true nature...which is fully alive and totally awake.”
Greetings,
You are joyfully invited to be a participant in the creation of my upcoming album, “Songs from the Deep”.
After many years of writing
music for yoga dvds and yoga classes, I am ready to create a soulful devotional
album with English lyrics (much like my first solo album, Bhakti). This time my
intention is it to bring you the listener not only into the heart of your own
spiritual journey but also out onto the dance floor. With your help I want to
roll out a rockin’ dance album!
I love to dance, and over
the last 20 years it has been my pleasure to work with some amazing musical
composers and producers of dance music and electronica. Now I have the
opportunity to call them in to “deeper” collaboration. “Songs from the Deep”
(working title) will showcase the unique talents of each of them as I combine
my lyrics and melodies with their incredible compositions; creating a tapestry
of stories about the human/spiritual adventure.
Because I travel extensively
with many projects (watch the video to get a full picture of my work in the
world) I have an opportunity to include these producers in a moveable feast, a
recording tour throughout the country. A few of the tracks are complete, as I
have been already recording with my longtime friend and co-producer Christopher
K. Other producers on the project will
include Duke Mushroom (Yoga Organix), Amani Friend (Desert Dwellers), Jeff
Stott (Six degrees), Robin Tala (MC Yogi), Kaminanda and more to be announced.
I want you to understand
that this album cannot happen without your support. I am very excited to
include you in the process as the songs evolve and develop. Over the next 60
days (last day of the kickstart is Friday, May 18), I will be giving you video
updates and describing the wonderful gifts you can receive at various donation
levels. All donations come with my undying gratitude. Meanwhile as part of my
ongoing creative process I would like to ask you a few questions:
Which of my songs have
sparked you in the past and why?
Are there any themes that you would like explored in this album?
If you are familiar with my songs, how do you listen to them: in the car, yoga and meditation, while dancing or singing.
I would love to know how my music has affected you and your life.
Please email me: Suzanne@suzannesterling.com with your thoughts and to

“Come to the river, come all you wanderers
Worshipper, lover, bringer of pain.
It does not matter if you are broken
Come to the river again and again.”
