About Laraaji

Laraaji Nadabrahmananda is a meditator, laugh-master and cosmic musician who has performed worldwide with his specially designed electric zither—alongside many instruments such as the African Mbire, piano, synthesizers, hand drums, percussions, Tibetan gong, and voice.

He was trained in music composition the 1960s at Howard University (Washington DC), specialising in piano. An early collaboration with producer Brian Eno led to Laraaji's first internationally distributed recording “Ambient #3: Day of Radiance”. This album was deemed one of the 50 best ambient albums of all time by Pitchfork. A long awaited retrospective of LARAAJI's solo and collaborative music performance recordings was released in 2013 by All Saint & Warp records entitled “Celestial Music 1978-2011.”

In addition to concerts, for many years Laraaji has been an important contributor to healing Arts festivals and conferences as his ‘beautiful Celestial sounds’ create a warm and soothing atmosphere for both presenters and visitors. The Healing Sounds Intensive with Jonathan Goldman, the Life Spectrums Conference and the Freedom Healing Arts Festival are listed as his annual conferences.

A devotee of the late Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati, founder of the Ananda Ashram in Harriman, New York, Laraaji is the creator and facilitator of Laughter Meditation Workshops throughout the world; empowering workshops that acknowledge and honor the ability of our laughter to take us into deep relaxation and receptivity to meditation.
