“Metta Prayer,” the lead single from Grammy winners Opium Moon’s forthcoming album Where We Are Gathered, is a Buddhist loving kindness meditation (metta bhavana). The piece is an example of the band’s seductive combination of ancient and modern sounds.
The artists include vocalist Benjy Wertheimer; violinist Lili Haydn; santur player Hamid Saeidi; bassist Itai Disraeli; and percussionist MB Gordy.
