There lies within us all a slumbering force—the creative energy of kundalini, coiled at the base of the spine. On Rhythms of Awakening, Grammy®-winning master percussionist Glen Velez takes listeners on an odyssey of rhythm to tap that sleeping power within. Focusing on the body's lower two chakras, each composition invokes the beats and vibrations ideally suited to bringing these vital energy centers alive. With healing secrets drawn from the drumming traditions of India, Asia, and Egypt, Rhythms of Awakening stirs together an exotic blend of music that inspires, energizes, and awakens the forces of kundalini.

In collaboration with vocalist/composer Lori Cotler.

Featuring: Steve Gorn, Howard Levy, Lori Cotler, Zohar Fresco, Yousif Sheronick, Shane Shanahan, and Randy Crafton.
