David Ballman, vocals, tambura, percussion
I came home and joined the Twin City Community Gospel Choir directed by Robert Robinson. For 5 years my vocal boundaries were again stretched by Gospel’s passion-filled longing for spirit. For me, the connection between Sufi chanting and gospel is undeniable.
I soon stirred them together in a soulful stew of sound which I attempt to bring to the musical banquet that is the Wild Moon Bhaktas.
I continue to work on the connection between music and spirituality. I am a wandering soul with a hunger for beauty as well as a propensity for mistrust and cynicism.
Every heartfelt chant and every bluesy moan carries me across the bridge between my musical self and my spiritual self. Without the blessing of this music I would simply be a wandering soul. I am awash with gratitude to be a small part of this great tradition.
