Secret Tour of Europe by Larisa Stow

Larisa Stow brings her mantra-jam band music from "Rock on Sat Nam!" to the EU on a word-of-mouth solo tour.

2011-08-01

WOODLANDS HILLS, CA, August 01, 2011 (Press-News.org) With the release of the new album, "Rock on Sat Nam!" by Larisa Stow & Shakti Tribe, the lead singer has leaped onto the continent for a word-of-mouth-media EU tour. "The feedback on the streets of EU for their new release has been amazing and we are excited to have Larisa performing here live," notes manager Leanne Wood. "In putting her lyrics of peace and harmony to a rock beat, Larisa is already breaking a lot of rules, so why not break a few rules of touring?" adds Wood.

Playing in Italy (or perhaps France or England) right now, Stow sees no problem with this approach to getting her music heard. "We just sort of swoop into a city, locate friends and yoga aficionados, and take things from there," says Stow. "Sometimes you get added to a gig that night, or get to play music during a workshop, and sometimes you play at someone's place. If I can sing about universal unity and peace, I'm happy to do it to raise awareness and funds for a related cause," she adds with a smile.

Rock rhythms are back in Stow's life after a 10-year search for a way to infuse the art of mantra into popular music, Stow welcomes the spirituality to be found in everyday life. "I believe that music is the bridge that brings people together," says Stow. "When I integrate sounds from another culture, I feel like I am embracing it, declaring our oneness," she states. The title of her latest album combines English and Sanskrit and may be translated as a call to "Live a Truthful Life."

The "Rock on Sat Nam!" album was launched with a name-your-price offer on the artist's website. "Even after the special promotion ends, there will always be at least one free track available," notes Wood. "In addition, everyone can enjoy Larisa's music on YouTube," she adds.

Emotional responses are greeting Larisa Stow's music in person and in print. For example, Shannon Nies in VISION Magazine writes that Stow is "passionate about closing the bridge between different people and cultures," and that Stow's music "is about awakening the leader and visionary within ourselves."

About Larisa Stow
At the turn of the century, as the promise of the "big record deal" hung in the air, Larisa walked away to learn how to create music as a pure expression of love. She worked with Thomas Ashley-Farrand (author of "Healing Mantras") and then explored kirtan (devotional call-and-response music) and chant music. "What I found," she states, "was deeper into music and deeper into my soul." Today, Stow is delighted to mix spiritually-inspired lyrics, catchy melodies and pop grooves.

Non-Profit Shakti Tribe Foundation
Bringing messages of peace, hope and love in order to empower, transform and educate are the goals of Shakti Tribe Foundation, a 501[c](3) dedicated to teaching the concepts of Oneness: that we are all connected by the invisible threads of our humanity beyond race and religion. Larisa Stow sees this work as pivotal in positively touching people's lives.

New model predicts environmental effect of pharmaceutical products

2011-08-01

Most synthetic chemical products used in consumer goods end up unchanged in the environment. Given the risks this could pose for the environment and human health, researchers from the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB) have developed a new tool to effectively predict what will happen to current and future pharmaceutical products. Thousands of pharmaceutical products, which are increasingly diverse and increasingly used, are "partially" metabolised by the human body. Those that remain unchanged pass into the waste water treated at sewage plants, which are not always ...

Education -- a key determinant of population growth and human well-being

2011-08-01

Laxenburg, Austria – 28 July 2011 -- Future trends in global population growth could be significantly affected by improvements in both the quality and quantity of education, particularly female education. Projections of future population trends that do not explicitly include education in their analysis may be flawed, according to research published today in the journal Science (July 29 2011). The study uses a novel "multi-state" population modeling approach to incorporate education attainment level, along with age and sex. The integration of education in the analyses ...

Getting 50-year-old Americans as healthy as Europeans could save Medicare and Medicaid $632 billion by 2050

2011-08-01

Forty years ago, Americans could expect to live slightly longer than Europeans. This has since reversed: in spite of similar levels of economic development, Americans now live about a year-and-a-half less, on average, than their Western European counterparts, and also less than people in most other developed nations. How did Americans fall behind? A study in the July 2011 issue of Social Science & Medicine is the first to calculate the fiscal consequences of the growing life expectancy gap over the next few decades. The study also pinpoints the crucial age at which U.S. ...

In the pursuit of dangerous clumps

2011-08-01

When normal proteins form protein clumps in the body, then alarm bells start ringing. Such clumps, called "amyloids," are closely associated with Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes, formerly called adult-onset diabetes. If doctors knew how these proteins form clumps, then they might be able to treat such diseases more efficiently. The physicist Adrian Keller and his colleagues at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf and the university in Aarhus, Denmark, have succeeded in taking a major step in that direction. The cell surface assumes a major role in this ...
