Mike Cohen & The Shakti Groove

Formed in 2016, this high-energy Kirtan band features three outstanding chant leaders (Mike Cohen, Dawnia Dresser, and Michele Heaphy), who lead original chants, and have collectively released four albums and two EP's of original, accessible sacred chant music. A collection of accomplished Boulder, Colorado-based musicians, The Shakti Groove blends masculine and feminine energies with devotion and prayer to lift the spirit and awaken the soul. Their effervescent style brings brightness and warmth to energize and nourish the body.

This group has played at numerous Kirtan & Yoga Festivals (Bhakti Fest, Telluride Yoga Festival, Hanuman Festival, and more), regularly tours Colorado, and teaches hundreds of students annually through the Kirtan Leader Institute (see below) which Mike Cohen founded in 2010.

Shiva Prayer Music Video

The official Shiva Prayer music video, created by Mike Cohen and filmmaker Roger Ingraham, released December 2021. The video acknowledges our gritty challenges (disasters) and how prayer and right action (dignities) can guide us to the other side. During our challenging times we endeavor to keep our hearts open, our minds calm, our prayer deep, and our actions aligned with our deepest prayers. Track features vocalist Sandy Griffin and produced by Ben Leinbach.
