Specializing in musical versions of yogic mantras,
White Sun is a new age group from Los Angeles with a worldbeat sensibility. Founding members included lead vocalist
Gurujas Kaur Khalsa, aka Gurujas, a former member of the Cleveland Orchestra Children's Chorus;
Harijiwan, a gong virtuoso and veteran Kundalini yoga instructor; and
Adam Berry, an Emmy-winning film and TV composer. Their self-released eponymous debut appeared in 2015, followed a year later by
White Sun II on the Be Why label. The sophomore release reached number two on the Billboard world album chart and climbed to number one on the new age chart. The aptly named
White Sun Gong, a full-length LP of pure solo gong playing by
Harijiwan, arrived in 2018. ~ Marcy Donelson
