If you missed Radharani’s debut in 2016, it’s time to catch on because this young woman is a rising star. Her stunning debut “Just One Drop” in 2016 came seemingly out of nowhere, slaying us with a haunting voice, and expertly crafted blend of light and dark emotionality. Her uniqueness as a devotional artist becomes more apparent in her upcoming second release, “Time to Wake Up,” with its emphasis on English chants, and its sincere blend of styles and instrumentation. As a self-produced work, Radharani’s heart is in every note and it shows as she wows us again with her devotional intensity, and lustrous musical moments.

“Time to Wake Up” features the cello, played by Krishna Das’s cellist Noah Hoffeld. It also features vocals by celebrated Kundalini-Yoga musician Sirgun Kaur, and well-known Rabbi-musician Shir Yaakov. Ben Leinbach graces the album with percussion on “It Was Good”.

Radharani’s intention with this album is to accompany the growing pains and revelations of today’s seekers by speaking to the process of letting go, listening inward, acknowledging our reflections, and calling ourselves onward. The album is a compassionate wake up call that pays homage to our humanness as we take each courageous step.
